On Thursday the US Senate is expected to reauthorize the contentious warrantless surveillance powers conferred by Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and may even strengthen them with language that, according to US Senator Ron Wyden, "will force a huge range of companies and individuals to spy for the government."

Last Friday, an amendment that would ban warrantless surveillance of US persons failed to pass on a split vote of 212-212. Another potentially more alarming provision in RISAA, however, made it through without much fanfare.

This one changes the definition of electronic communications service provider, which previously covered traditional phone, email and internet companies. The revision can be used to force "any other service provider who has access to equipment that is being or may be used to transmit or store wire or electronic communications" to hand these communications over to the Feds, as well as "custodians" of these so-called service providers.

This includes "anyone with access to a server, a wire, a cable box, a Wi-Fi router, a phone, or a computer," and "every office building in America [that] has data cables running through it"

As much as America slams China; they sure want to be China. Maybe North Korea.
