Reminder to call/mail your representatives to not support renewal of section 702 (act.eff.org)

This law allows the NSA to "accidentally" collect american communication and the FBI to access the "incidental" communication without a warrant.

It is set to expire in December 2023 and will likely be renewed if there isn't much public pressure.

Wish we could cancel Executive Orders 12333, 13355, and 13470, all of which are used against US citizens.

Thanks Reagan and Bush, motherfuckers.
