Do you think Congress should renew FISA Section 207 before its expiration deadline?

Renew as it is (20%) – "We are all under some form of surveillance. For example, video cameras are everywhere. Also, Google knows every topic I have ever searched. This has been ongoing for many years. Is my privacy impinged? To a small degree. Is my safety and my family's safety enhanced? Yes, to a very large degree. I am quite fine with those tradeoffs."

• "While I don't really trust our current administration, I believe we should support national security first. Pass an 18-month extension and task some of those lazy congressional peeps to rewrite it so we're not infringing on Americans' rights while protecting us all."

Renew with major changes (56%) – "Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater; there are agencies that, to the letter, follow the rules of FISA and drop everything the instant they believe there's an American citizen scooped up in the net. The FBI should NOT be able to disregard those rules and should face consequences for doing so. Losing the ability to collect foreign comms entirely would be a genuine threat to national security, especially when you better believe they're doing it to us."

• "Spying on innocent Americans through FISA should have severe legal repercussions for those doing it whether individuals or government agencies like the FBI. Looking at people for political reasons should mean mandatory jail time. Allowing the government to operate illegally is NOT what the government is for but IS abusing the governed."

"There has to be a middle ground. Americans shouldn't lose their right to privacy in the name of international or national security and it is too easy for government officials to claim that any information gathering they do is to keep us safe. Of course we want security, but our attention often lies in the wrong place anyway, ignoring serious threats in favor of personal vendettas or to gain access to (in other words, steal) desired resources. Create restrictions on what actions are permissible and hold those people who ignore the restrictions accountable for their actions. Require surveillance to be proportionate to threats identified by intelligence, not the whim of whoever is in the White House. If FISA is a free for all then it shouldn't exist anymore. "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.""

• "With great power, comes great responsibility. The tracking/monitoring/recording of foreign nationals outside the US makes perfect sense (although I'm very curious how they achieve it where one would logically assume the communication lines are under the control of a foreign government). But the use of it to research US citizens where no warrant exists is simply wrong and needs controls and punishment for abuse. Our Constitution must be upheld regardless of what other benefits might be imagined."

"A good business practice is to review and revise all publications of all types, and especially those of the type that is the FISA Section 702. Since this Act was originally passed in 2008, many changes and updates in technology have transpired increasing the need for surveilance of foreign entities and their American counterparts."

Let it expire (24%) – "If we're going to go against the Constitution for convenience and safety, let's then actually have a conversation and change the Constitution instead of diluting its meaning by justifying breaches of it for "national safety.""

• "Most if not all of the laws enacted after 911 dealing with intelligence and surveillance are regressive and have the potential for abuse. And where there is potential, there is actual abuse of the power. An example is the FISA provision that allows the government to obtain the list of books being read by patrons at the library. Librarians figured out quickly how to not violate the patrons rights by not saving any of the data. If the same could be done for communications users (all of us), we'd all be better off."
