FISA Section 702 warrantless surveillance
Section 702 lets U.S. intelligence agencies collect communications of non-U.S. people outside the country for foreign-intelligence work. The debate people are following is what happens when Americans' names, phone numbers, or emails are used to search that collected data, and whether a warrant should be required. Congress renewed the authority through S.4465; related reform bills continue the debate over warrant rules and oversight.
