Today, the ODNI, in consultation with the Department of Justice, is releasing additional FISA Section 702 documents.
On May 11, 2017, we publicly posted two tranches of Section 702 documents after these documents were produced pursuant to a Freedom of Information (FOIA) case filed in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, ACLU v. National Security Agency, et al. (the ACLU FOIA release April 11, 2017 and the ACLU FOIA release May 10, 2017). For purposes of transparency, we also released several other documents pertaining to the FISC Opinion Approving the 2016 Section 702 Certifications on May 11, 2017. Today’s release is the third tranche of documents related to the ACLU FOIA case (the ACLU FOIA release June 13, 2017).
Additionally, opinions and orders by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court concerning Section 702 have been produced in a FOIA cased filed in the U.S. District Court, Northern District of California San Francisco Division, Electronic Frontier Foundation v. United States Department of Justice (the EFF FOIA release June 13, 2017). The same opinions and orders are being posted here for purposes of transparency.
