Controversial FISA spying law expires tonight. The spying will continue.
摘要
美国《外国情报监视法》第七章将于午夜到期,但政府监控权力不会消失。根据纽约大学法学院布伦南正义中心的解释,第702条监控依据外国情报监视法庭2026年3月17日发布的年度认证,将持续有效至2027年3月。该中心指出,监控鹰派声称国会若不续期法律,监控将"陷入黑暗",但国会已明确允许在现有认证下继续监控,呼吁议员不应在未保护美国人隐私的情况下被恐吓通过重新授权
Title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) is set to expire at midnight tonight after Congress failed to pass an extension of the controversial spying law. But that doesn't mean the government's spying powers will disappear.
Surveillance under Section 702 of FISA "operates under yearlong certifications approved by the FISA Court," the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law explained this week. The current certification will remain in place until March 2027 under the yearlong certification issued by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court on March 17, 2026.
"In order to pressure members to accept a bill without meaningful reforms, surveillance hawks are claiming that Section 702 surveillance will 'go dark' on June 12 if Congress hasn’t renewed the law," the Brennan Center said. "Contrary to that claim, Congress planned for potential lapses and made very clear that Section 702 surveillance may continue under existing certifications even if the statute sunsets. Members must not be fearmongered into passing a reauthorization without protecting Americans from warrantless government access to their private communications."
