Time to go back to Dan

Not shocking. Unfortunately.

This is mean I should no use internet?

When you think it's bad… it can get worse! At the bottom of a dungeon, there is an entrance door to another dungeon.

🤦‍♂️

Not a good omen

NO ONE WANTS THAT SHIT, THESE CLOWNS DO NOT REPRESENT US

Based on the search results, the key points regarding FISA and warrantless surveillance are: 1. FISA was originally passed in 1978 to allow the government to collect foreign intelligence information involving communications with "foreign powers" and "agents of foreign powers".[3][5] 2. However, the USA PATRIOT Act in 2001 expanded FISA to allow the government to obtain personal records of ordinary Americans from libraries and the internet, even without a connection to terrorism.[5] 3. Recent amendments to FISA, such as the Protect America Act, have further authorized the government to use FISA to conduct warrantless surveillance on Americans, bypassing constitutional protections.[5] 4. There is significant controversy and criticism around these expansions of FISA, with civil liberties groups like the ACLU arguing that FISA is being used to make an "end-run around the Constitution" and allow warrantless spying on American citizens.[5] 5. The search results indicate that while FISA was originally intended for foreign intelligence gathering, it has been repeatedly expanded to enable warrantless domestic surveillance, which has drawn strong opposition from privacy advocates.[3][5] So in summary, yes the search results suggest that FISA has been used to allow warrantless wiretapping and surveillance of American citizens, despite the original intent of the law. This has been a major source of controversy and criticism.[5] Sources [1] Modified surveillance bill clears key House hurdle after failing earlier this week https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/12/politics/house-vote-fisa-reauthorization/index.html [2] The FISA reauthorization bill has finally passed the House. - The Verge

A large portion of the article is a "he said - she said" fights between both parties, while the context of the surveillance act barely gets covered. A great way to distract people is to split them up and get them fighting with each other while their fundamental rights gets stripped away.

“When I was a member of (the House Judiciary Committee) I saw the abuses of the FBI, the terrible abuses over and over and over… and then when I became speaker I went to the SCIF and got the confidential briefing on sort of the other perspective on that to understand the necessity of section 702 of FISA and how important it is for national security,” the Louisiana Republican said earlier this week. “And it gave me a different perspective.” Don't worry folks, he has a different perspective now and all those terrible abuses that happened over and over again are totally cool now. Nothing to see here. Move along.

This is sad

This was done in the hopes that Trump gets elected so he can make changes to it and take all the credit.

Haven't for decades now

CNN IS TRASH SO NOT UNEXPECTED BULLSHIT

i find it ironic when validator networks are upset by warrantless searches. also: on the blockchain, trust is a barrier to discovery. no matter who you are. privacy is a state of being.

CNN didn't do it. You realize that right? They are just reporting what was passed in legislation.

Wow, thanks Rob. So insightful. I thought CNN passed the legislation before you enlightened me. We were commenting on the article barely mentioning the details of the law rather than the interpersonal drama as if it is a high school newspaper. Which is why CNN is trash.

SOB's pissing on the Constitution for all the world to see.
