The military has bought virtually all our internet data.
The U.S. military is buying access to our internet data. This is a dangerous practice, showing the military’s willingness to work with private companies to obtain our internet browsing history, emails, and other sensitive information without a warrant.We need to stop this practice in its tracks immediately.
Why is this important?
A report in Vice News explains that several branches of the U.S. military purchased an internet surveillance tool from a private cybersecurity firm. The tool, called Augury, allows for the monitoring of 90% of the world’s internet traffic.2
Warrantless collection of our data is never OK. And it violates our Fourth Amendment right against search and seizure without a warrant. What the U.S. military is doing with the help of private companies is in direct conflict with our most basic constitutional rights.
The U.S. military is using taxpayer dollars to spy on Americans with the help of private firms. Congress must pass the Jacobs-Davidson Amendment to determine the extent of this surveillance and make sure these constitutional violations stop now.
Will you sign our petition demanding Congress take a stand against the military’s warrantless collection of our internet data right now? Congress must preserve the Jacobs-Davidson Amendment and protect our constitutional rights.
