Warrantless Surveillance Concerns Grow
Feds drop Maine gun case after judge questions secret surveillance, amid growing concerns over warrantless spying
Concerns over warrantless surveillance are growing, as evidenced by the recent decision to drop a Maine gun case after a judge questioned years of secret surveillance, as reported by the Bangor Daily News. This development comes amidst controversy over the use of surveillance tools, including a change of heart by Jim Jordan on warrantless spying, which he discussed in an interview with dailycaller.com. The issue of warrantless surveillance has also been highlighted by the Electronic Frontier Foundation's efforts to fight surveillance tech, as well as reports of Texas police spending $4.5 million on surveillance-equipped SUVs, as noted by naturalnews.com, and the recent dismissal of the Maine gun case, which can be found in more detail in the article Feds Drop Maine Gun Case After Judge Questions Secret Surveillance.
