NSA Spying Continues With Another Rubber Stamp

Senate Appropriations Committee member Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore. holds up his Verizon cell phone during the committee's hearing on cybersecurity and funding, June 12, 2013, on Capitol Hill. A federal court has again renewed an order allowing the National Security Agency to continue its bulk collection of Americans’ phone records, a decision that comes more than a year after President Obama pledged to end the controversial program. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court approved this week a government request to keep the NSA’s mass surveillance of U.S. phone metadata operating until June 1, coinciding with when the legal authority for the program is set to expire in Congress.
