Leahy scuttles his warrantless email surveillance bill
Sen. Patrick Leahy has abandoned his controversial proposal that would grant government agencies more surveillance power, including warrantless access to Americans’ e-mail accounts, than they possess under current law.
The Vermont Democrat said today on Twitter that he would “not support such an exception” for warrantless access. The remarks came a few hours after a CNET article this morning that disclosed the existence of the measure.
