Do you support Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act?

👍 Yes (24%) – "The alternatives to ensure privacy also reduce the effectiveness of the tool--we need to trust that those that implement/execute FISA activities will do so appropriately, and we should punish them when they do not."

• "Because the U.S. needs to be able to quickly expose criminal conspiracies against the United States and our citizens, even if U.S. citizens are involved."

📝 Yes, but with a warrant requirement for US data (38%) – "Even though it’s a slippery slope, we have 20 million illegals who have crossed the border. If we can’t access any kind of intelligence on people we know nothing about we are particularly vulnerable.. There will always be abuse, but at least if you’re an American citizen, you have some protection by having to have a warrant"

• "The government should not be allowed to investigate American citizens without a legal warrant."

"I believe foreign citizens could pose a threat to America. Not saying they do, but you can never be too careful. And, I believe American rights should always be upheld."

• "If there is an expectation of privacy in the communication the Fourth Amendment warrant requirement should apply."

👎 No (23%) – "A warrant should be required for everyone. You can't just spy on people willy nilly, you still need a good reason and legal backing."

• "I am a strong believer in getting warrants. There will be too much abuse if warrants are not issued – this has been proven."

🤷 Unsure/other (15%) – "I understand both sides of the story. I do not want the government having all this access to my personal information, but I recognize it can help in certain situations. In an ideal world we focus on better initiatives to keep Americans safe and get rid of this. If we can have people raised to be better people and have more values and limit allowing bad actors into our country, perhaps there will be less of a need for infringing on our privacy."
