Reminder: The Section 702 bill the Senate will vote cloture on today gives criminal suspects more protection than it gives people against whom the FBI has no evidence of wrong-doing. Call your Senator and tell them to vote no.

How does it protect criminals more than non criminals?
It requires FBI get a warrant only when querying data for a fully predicated criminal investigation, not if it's just checking a tip.

This was then, David Nunes is adding an amendment in which oversight will be required for 702 searches.
-
No. It's meaningless.
-
702 “about searches/queries” had no oversight b4 NSA Director Mike Rogers shut the searches down in late October 2016 after finding out about the violations. Now they r adding oversight which deters illegal/suspicious activity in re to these searches. How is that “meaningless”?
-
You're talking about something besides backdoor searches, for one. For two, there was oversight before: I knew abt the violations. For three, what Nunes did was codify the way to reopen abouts, not oversee them.
-
702 & all its sub numbers (in which I specifically mentioned “about queries” (702(17))) will have oversight & not by Obama admin hold overs like head of DOJ NatSec Division, Asst. Attorney General John P Carlin who left his job right after Rogers asked 4 a review on the searches.

You have no clue what you're talking about. Trust me. Zero clue. But thanks for defending warrantless surveillance.

Keep spreading misleading tweets so when someone asks you to clarify aans have a discussion supported with facts, all you say is “you have no clue” because your spin has found its dead end.

There are 4 major problems with this bill 1) It explicitly provides a way to turn about collection back on 2) It permits back door searches for tips at FBI 3) It permits collection of entirely domestic comms off VPN/Tor
