Congress just gave itself 10 more days on Section 702.
That is not reform. It is a delay.
EFF is urging people to keep pushing for a real fix, especially a warrant requirement before the FBI can search Americans' communications swept up under Section 702.
If lawmakers let this slide again, mass surveillance gets another win.
Will Congress choose privacy this time?
