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.

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.

Now go read where it asks FBI to report back on how they do their queries. And go read the 2015 702 reauth, w/Amicus. And go read the last 7 years of Semiannual reports. When you've done that we can talk.

It does exactly what oversight means..fbi is required 2 get access from the court. Contra 2 what the practice was before Rogers intervened in oct. ‘16. The past does not matter cause we can’t obviously go back, but the amen. will make sure it prevents violation from hapning again
