Abstract

The article examines the increasing reliance on foreign intelligence surveillance tools, such as the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) and National Security Letters (NSLs), highlighting the tension between national security and civil liberties. It argues that the expansion of these tools under the Patriot Act has raised significant privacy concerns and questions about the adequacy of judicial and public oversight.
