A bill for the people?

A bill for the people? We nearly forgot the government could do that
The US government regularly gets around the 4th Amendment by buying data from “third-party” data brokers, to invade your privacy with no oversight.
Why this is legal? We have no idea, but Rep. Thomas Massie (KY) just introduced the Surveillance Accountability Act (with help drafting from Naomi Brockwell!) which closes this loophole.
The bill would mandate warrants for all surveillance, including a ban on invasive AI and facial recognition mass surveillance in public spaces

@privacyguides Introduced by two Republicans? The only way you can help is to give them money, according to their "Support" page? Yeah, I'm pressing X to doubt on this one.

@privacyguides This sounds great. Of course, I haven't read it, so it might just be the usual bullshit. They are politicians, after all. But I'd like to thik it isn't just another trojan horse to extend protection for Monsanto or Pfizer or Bill Gates.

@burtman if you do read it, it is in fact great. Very short. So great that it does make me wonder how unlikely it is to be passed, but more awareness of it might help.
