President helpful
senator Rand Paul believes that tech companies should not be allowed for legal
immunity from users suing them for government spying. The Patriot Act gave telecommunication companies resistance from being sued for granting Intelligence Agencies to tap
phone or fiber channels. He didn’t say much deeper about how this opinion could
become a law. Tech companies are allowing intelligence agencies to sneak into
user phone or computer and often chocked from speaking about the concerned
cooperation or they were unaware of such surveillance of undersea cables.
Techcruch says “Administration officials are complaining about House Democrats stalling
legislation that would grant immunity to any telecommunications carrier that
assisted with its domestic spying program. Without that immunity cloak, the
White House says, telecoms will hesitate to cooperate with such programs in the
future. It's true that telecom assistance is crucial to successful electronic
surveillance. But what's getting lost in all the heated rhetoric is that
telecoms, under current law, already have immunity when they assist in lawful electronic surveillance.
Congress specifically gave telecoms that legal cover in the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act. In the now-expired Protect America Act,
which amended FISA, Congress also provided for telecom immunity in the course
of lawful surveillance”
These
companies taking precaution from fraud prevention companies but still it’s not
that helpful in order to prevent NSA or any agency to sneak in. in some example
tech companies rather more cooperative with agencies for letting them tap the
line like Hepting v. AT&T, but Rand thinks that there is no proper evidence
for such spying Scandal, which is interesting, though there isn’t any government
constraint on which they collect personal data. Especially Google has to come
into strong inspection for how they treat user data, despite notifying users.
