5 f\u00e9vrier 2014<\/a>) :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abDemocrats and Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee blasted the government’s bulk collection of Americans’ telephone records on Tuesday and said it’s a misuse of authority granted by Congress under the Patriot Act. Congress never intended to allow bulk collections, said Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., author of the 2001 Patriot Act. Debate is intensifying in Congress over whether to scrap the massive data collection effort or to modify it. There’s widespread skepticism among both parties over President Barack Obama’s plans for the program’s future and a desire for Congress to curb the National Security Agency.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbIn my district, and many others, NSA has become not a three-letter word but a four-letter word, Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., said at a Tuesday hearing on the surveillance effort. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., said Congress needs to end the bulk collection. Consensus is growing that it is largely ineffective, inconsistent with our national values, and inconsistent with the statute as this committee wrote it, said Conyers, the top Democrat on the Judiciary Committee.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbAn independent federal privacy board reviewed the spy program and said there was no evidence it had made a real difference in thwarting any terrorist operations. David Medine, who chairs the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, told the Judiciary Committee on Tuesday that the program should come to an end. We conclude the benefits of the program are modest at best and they are outweighed by the privacy and civil liberties consequences, Medine said…<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tHuit mois de d\u00e9bats (de conversation<\/em>, disent-ils), de r\u00e9v\u00e9lations en torrents et en cascades, d’\u00e9normit\u00e9s en \u00e9normit\u00e9s dans le chef des programmes sans fin de la NSA, tout cela finit par porter ses fruits. La NSA devient de plus en plus un fardeau, pour les citoyens bien s\u00fbr soumis \u00e0 cette question de leur propre surveillance, pour les parlementaires qui sollicitent le soutien de leurs \u00e9lecteurs et \u00e0 qui ces \u00e9lecteurs jettent le cas de NSA comme on jette une insulte, pour lequel eux-m\u00eames (les parlementaires) n’ont aucun argument \u00e0 avancer, et d’ailleurs pour beaucoup convaincus jusqu’\u00e0 souvent avoir la m\u00eame position que ces \u00e9lecteurs. La NSA a trop pr\u00e9sum\u00e9 des forces de ceux qu’elle pr\u00e9tend soumettre \u00e0 sa surveillance, comme de ceux dont elle jugeait leur complicit\u00e9 acquise.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tSi la campagne se poursuit comme elle a d\u00e9marr\u00e9, et rien, absolument rien ne fait penser le contraire, il n’est pas du tout impossible que l’on ait, en novembre prochain, et ensuite \u00e0 l’ouverture du nouveau Congr\u00e8s en janvier 2015, de tr\u00e8s mauvaises surprises en pr\u00e9paration pour la NSA. La fatigue psychologique impos\u00e9e par la tension de cette crise, l’\u00e9normit\u00e9 des activit\u00e9s de la NSA, la faiblesse des r\u00e9sultats de l’Agence en comparaison, l’ampleur des menaces th\u00e9oriques que font peser ses activit\u00e9s sur la vie publique US, tout cela pourrait conduire \u00e0 un retour de flamme radical venant du Congr\u00e8s, dans une p\u00e9riode (\u00e0 partir de janvier 2015) o\u00f9 le pr\u00e9sident Obama sera bien entendu devenu compl\u00e8tement impotent du point de vue de son pouvoir et de son autorit\u00e9 \u00e0 cause de la proximit\u00e9 de la fin der son mandat. Le terrain sur lequel la NSA a b\u00e2ti subrepticement son empire est en train de s’effriter dangereusement.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
