Passing FISA 702 without strong new guardrails, while doing nothing to stop the government from buying Americans' location data and feeding it into AI systems to conduct unprecedented mass surveillance, would be shocking negligence.

Quote attributed to Sen. Ron Wyden (2026). The Daily Caller source_url returned HTTP 403 to automated fetching, but web search corroborated the article exists at that URL ("'Unprecedented Mass Surveillance': Bipartisan Senators Warn Of Privacy Threat Tied To FISA Renewal," 2026-04-15) and confirmed the quote verbatim: Wyden said "Passing FISA 702 without strong new guardrails, while doing nothing to stop the government from buying Americans' location data and feeding it into AI systems to conduct unprecedented mass surveillance, would be shocking negligence." This matches his documented Senate statements/press releases. Year (2026) current and correct. Author attribution confirmed. Vote alignment correct: Wyden opposes feeding data into AI for mass surveillance, supporting the statement "Ban the use of AI for mass surveillance" — matching the "for" vote.
