The patriot act is a great thing that is HIGHLY misunderstood. If you actually understand what goes into it and what is actually required to receive taps and information you would be surprised.

99% of the public doesn't like it simply because opposing political groups use scare tactics to make you think like it could *possibly* happen to you.. which in reality, wont. Unless you deserve it of course.

This is taken directly from justice.gov

* FACT: The new law simply makes clear – consistent with the intent of the Congress that enacted FISA in 1978 – that our intelligence community should not have to get bogged down in a court approval process to gather foreign intelligence on targets located in foreign countries. It does not change the strong protections FISA provides to Americans in the United States – surveillance directed at people in the United States continues to require court approval as it did before.


Judging by your distaste for the patriot act, I am assuming you are not American, nor in the U.S?
