What a bunch of fucking bullshit, STOP. SPYING. ON. YOUR. OWN. CITIZENS. CUNT. BAGS.
It is completely unequivocally a violation of the god damn 4th ammendment. We do not need 1984 fucking big brother breathing down our necks all the time.
Makes sense to me. You care about the 4th Amendment right to be secure from unreasonable searches and he cares about keeping all his secret communicatin with his Russian handlers secure from incidental discovery during an unreasonable search.
I mean, maybe. But you can aways catch people using traditional surveillance methods to catch shit like that. There is no need to add backdoor spy devices and APIs into every electronic device that is connected to the internet. It’s fucking unnecessary and way extremely over the top big brother, and could lead to some really shit suppression of opposing viewpoints. Just wait until a smart authoritarian person goes and fills trumps shoes, then we’ll really be in trouble.
This is explicitly surveillance of foreign entities. The “backdoor” described is that your communications with foreign entities can be collected because the entire comm is collected.
You can disapprove of this program (I do, for other reasons), but it is not “1984”-style surveillance.

It’s really weird to say, but I agree with Rand Paul on this issue. Found our 1% common ground.
I have no idea what Rand Paul said about this, and if he isn’t agreeing with me on this one, then he’s wrong.
Edit: Holy shit, he tried to stop the reauthorization of the bill. I can’t believe we are on the same side with this issue.
