Government Tracks People And Refuses Congressional Oversight

The border patrol in USA has been buying cell phone location data from brokers and using the date in undisclosed ways. Congress attempted to get some information from the agency, and they refused to answer Congress' questions.

Americans gave up their freedom for temporary safety. Now Americans are paying taxes so government agencies can spy on their movements.

 

CBP Refuses to Tell Congress How it is Tracking Americans Without a Warrant

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is refusing to tell Congress what legal authority the agency is following to use commercially bought location data to track Americans without a warrant, according to the office of Senator Ron Wyden. The agency is buying location data from Americans all over the country, not just in border areas.
