• Commentary: Warrantless Electronic Surveillance Under Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act

The Senate Judiciary Committee opened a hearing Feb. 6 inquiring into reports of electronic surveillance allegedly done in contravention of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, 50 U.S.C. Sections 1801 et seq. Ever since James Risen's Dec. 16, 2005, article in the New York Times reporting on the National Security Agency's extrajudicial electronic surveillance of U.S. persons, many have joined the debate over the proper scope of and authority for domestic electronic surveillance.

• Commentary: The Nsa, Electronic Surveillance and Your Business

The recent ruckus over the National Security Agency's warrantless electronic surveillance program has once again brought electronic privacy rights to the forefront of public discourse. According to publicly available information, one NSA program involved the monitoring of international telephone communications in order to identify terrorists. The other program involved NSA requests to telephone carriers to turn over customer call records; the NSA would then sift through these records for links to terrorists. The White House and the Department of Justice have stuck to their guns, claiming that explicit and implicit executive branch powers authorize warrantless surveillance in the interests of national security. On the other side, many members of Congress and the vast majority of American...

• Fourth Amendment Discarded ; Spooky Electronic Surveillance Given Green Light

Watching Eric Holder's confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, I greatly regretted that the chief legal officer of the "Change We Can Believe In" administration assured us that it would support George W. Bush's insistence - in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) amendments of 2008 - that our telecommunications companies must be immunized from any lawsuits about their complicity in the previous administration's secret massive surveillance of our telephone and internet communications. Sen. Obama, after pledging his opposition to that bill by intending to filibuster it, wound up voting for it, to the deep disappointment and surprise of some of his ardent supporters. Now, under President Obama, Verizon, AT&T and other major telecommunications organizations a...
