The National Security Agency will end its mass metadata surveillance

program this weekend, two and a half years after Edward Snowdens

revelations. However, he NSAs replacement reasonable compromise is far

from being celebrated by privacy advocates.

Signed into law this past June, the USA

Freedom Act requires that by 11:59pm EST on

November 28, the NSA must cease its bulk

collection of telephony metadata. The NSA is ready to move ahead with a

different program, also ordered by the law, at the same time.

No longer will the NSA rely on the Patriot Acts Section 215 to collect all

phone records. Instead it will have to contact telecommunications companies

holding the data for them. Unlike general warrants leaked by former NSAcontractor Edward Snowden such as the one issued by the Foreign

Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) granting the NSA access to all Verizon

customers records, the new program only allows the NSA to collect records

from telecoms when a specific selection term pertaining to limited data is

outlined in a FISC warrant, which will limit investigations of the metadata to

six months.

The move has encouraged a wide variety of opinions to be voiced.

"The act struck a reasonable compromise which allows us to continue to

protect the country while implementing various reforms,"Ned Price, a

spokesman of the National Security Council, an advisory group to the US

President, told Reuters.

Meanwhile, Alex Abdo of the American Civil Liberties Union told the Baltimore

Sun that the ending of the phone records program may in the future seem to

While privacy advocates described the change as only a single step with the

prospect of more progress to come, lawmakers adopted a tone of finality.

"I think we have the balance right," Representative C. A. Dutch

Ruppersberger (D-Maryland) told the Sun. Ruppersberger has called

Snowden a traitor and was ranking member of House Permanent Select

Committee on Intelligence when the leaks were published.

Marcy Wheeler, a national security blogger, disagreed strongly. Wheeler

wrote that the USA Freedom Act expands on, rather than replaces, what the

NSA interpreted Section 215 as authorizing. Whats more, a separate

executive order is in place, she says, to run parallel to the bulk metadata

collection.

Right now, the Section 215 phone dragnet is not getting some cell records,

probably not getting all VOIP, and probably not getting non-telephony

messaging, Wheeler wrote on the Empty Wheel blog, adding just a tiny

corner of the phone dragnet will shut down, and the government will continue

to collect telephony metadata records in bulk including records of both

U.S. and non-U.S. persons under EO 12333, in reference to an executive

order issued in 1981 by President Ronald Reagan.

Although the bulk metadata collection is coming to an end, whats already

been collected will not be immediately destroyed, as an NSA request to keep

the metadata until the end of February 2016 is under FISC consideration. The

White House told Reuters the NSA still needs limited access to it, not for

analytical purposes but data integrity purposes,while the reliability of the

new focus-oriented program is monitored.

This month, a federal court found the soon-to-end program unconstitutional,

ordering that the past data be destroyed. However, an appeals court stayed

that ruling out of national security interests. Larry Klayman, founder of public

interest groups Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, has been in court with

the NSA since 2013 over its mass surveillance, and he says his case

depends on that data not being destroyed.

On Wednesday, FISC fulfilled another part of the new surveillance law,

adding five advisers to a panel, known as an amicus curiae in legal-speak, to

offer legal advice from a perspective promoting civil liberties when applicable

to a warrant request. The panel consists of four lawyers and a law professor.
