surveillance law under pressure US

Surveillance law getting under pressure

 

Politicians are trying to put some pressure over the NSA surveillance law on the US.
With all the domestic spying going on; the NSA has lots of dirt on them. This is probably the reason why they got so concerned about the issue.

How many persons are really squeaky clean? Would a “clean politician” get any support from dirtier ones? How much money would they get from corporations and other sponsors?

The reason behind this is not vital, as long as it is effective and they could actually put a stop on the NSA domestic surveillance. Below I leave you the article with the link top the correct sources.

Today, two representatives from the House Oversight & Government Reform Committee sent a letter (PDF) to Michael Rogers, director of the National Security Agency (NSA), asking him to discontinue any plans to expand the list of who the NSA shares certain information with.

In late February, The New York Times reported that the Obama administration was working with the NSA to craft new rules and procedures to allow domestic law enforcement organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) access to the digital communications information that the NSA collects through programs like PRISM. Under the new rules, domestic law enforcement agencies would be able to access raw information that the NSA collects, without the so-called "minimization" process that the NSA has formerly employed to scrub surveillance information of identifying data pertaining to American citizens before handing it over to the requesting agency.

"We are alarmed by press reports that state National Security Agency (NSA) data may soon routinely be used for domestic policing," Representative Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) and Representative Blake Farenthold (R-Tex.) wrote. "If media accounts are true, this radical policy shift by the NSA would be unconstitutional, and dangerous."
