The SAFE Act, reauthorizing Section 702 of FISA, is seen as a positive step in reforming mass surveillance but falls short of desired protections. A bipartisan group urges lawmakers to oppose attaching Section 702 reauthorization to 'must-pass' bills, emphasizing the need for key FISA reforms. The group highlights concerns over potential misuse of Section 702 by government agencies in the past.
I don’t know which member of Congress told @SharylAttkisson we’d face another 9/11 unless FISA 702 were immediately reauthorized without reforms, but this kind of thing is on-brand for the Intel Bros™️ in Congress. It’s also repulsive and intellectually lazy. https://t.co/IuhUUW9a0l
The lawmakers, many of whom are members of the Judiciary Committee, said that since FISA’s enactment 15 years ago, government agencies have routinely “misused Section 702.” https://t.co/s5AteA0WEe
