Surveillance State Expansion
đThe US surveillance state has expanded under both political parties, with President Biden renewing Section 702 of FISA in 2024, allowing massive data collection without judicial oversight.
đď¸Courts are rubber-stamping surveillance requests, Congress is renewing surveillance laws, and Presidents from both parties are not reining in the surveillance state.
Trump's Control and Potential Misuse
đŚ Trump now controls the vast warrantless surveillance machine, including the NSA and FBI, which he could potentially use to target political enemies.
Privacy Protection Measures
đTo limit exposure, individuals can use end-to-end encrypted services, turn off location tracking, use VPNs, and support digital privacy organizations.
Government Data Collection Methods
đĄThe government can collect data on Americans through geo-fencing warrants, data brokers, browsing habits, location tracking, health information, and national security letters without warrants or oversight.
