Section 702 Explained: How U.S. Surveillance Law Shapes National Security And Privacy | ACE

The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) prohibits the U.S. government from spying on Americans without a warrant. Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act allows the government to monitor foreign communications. Supporters argue it allows American agencies to stop foreign threats. Those against 702 point out that the FBI is able to monitor foreign conversations happening with Americans. Should Section 702 continue to be renewed despite the possibility of the section allowing collection of American’s data without a warrant?
