That FISA Thing

Ivan and I discussed the FISA legislation that was passed by the House and Senate in the latest podcast and I had posted about it earlier on Saturday. I admitted on the Podcast though that even though I was expressing strong opinions on it I was undereducated on it and did not know all the details.

Well, I still haven’t read the actual bill, and most likely never will, but here is a link to a helpful summary (surrounded by the author’s opinions):

There is a lot of interesting material in the comments there too… as well as in the other places linked to from the article.
