Keep Pushing: We Get 10 More Days to Reform Section 702

A bipartisan group of lawmakers blocked a near-unchanged reauthorization of Section 702, the NSA mass surveillance program, securing a 10-day extension to push for real reform. The EFF is urging the public to contact Congress demanding a probable cause warrant requirement before the FBI can access communications collected under Section 702. Senator Ron Wyden has warned of secret interpretations of the law enabling unchecked surveillance of Americans, including journalists, aid workers, and others.
