Bush Wants Right to ISP Customer Data
bryan8m writes “Wired is reporting
that the Bush administration wants back the ability to make ISPs turn over
information on their customers. The U.S. Court of Appeals is handling the case
and of course the feds want to hide details of it from the public. The law
giving the government the power to seize communications records from 1986 was
strengthened in 2001 by the Patriot Act and struck down after the ACLU
challenged it.”
