The bill in question reforms and extends a part of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) known as Section 702.

Currently, the NSA can force internet service providers such as Google and Verizon to hand over sensitive data concerning NSA targets.

However, Goitein claims that through an “innocuous change” to the definition of “electronic communications surveillance provider” in the FISA 702 bill, the U.S. government could go far beyond its current scope and force nearly every company and individual that provides any internet-related service to assist with NSA surveillance.

Bills like this are simply making it legal and overt. They are going to do it no matter what.

It isn't as if we don't have records of all this shit this time either. Everything is recorded. We know who voted for what, who "mysteriously" made untold millions, and so on. It's all on the internet, which means some autist somewhere has it on a backup device.

We have rapid DNA testing this time too. And a deep understanding of how to systematize any activity to brutal efficiency.

allows the U.S. government to collect electronic communications of non-Americans located outside the country without a warrant.

Pffft, that's nothing, Ausfalia passed a bill last year that allows the government to catfish you, impersonate your presence online, coop your emails and make up lies to falsely imprison you without rhyme or reason. All passed behind closed doors in a rush 24hrs with unanimous support from almost every member of parliament.

Sometimes the abuse victims just decides to accept that their abuser is going to abuse them until they die. Sometimes they say What the fuck? and they beat the abuser to death.

Yep. They huffed about spying without a warrant and then passed a bill that made it easier to spot on everyone.
