Wyden To Introduce Anti-Government Hacking Bill Next Week

Posted on May 12, 2016June 26, 2025 by Dissent

Amir Nasr reports:

Privacy advocate Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) expects to introduce his bill to reject the Supreme Court’s recent changes to federal criminal procedure that would permit judges to issue warrants for government hacking operations in any jurisdiction. Currently judges can only grant such warrants within their physical jurisdiction.
