EFF FIOA REQUEST: Tech Bias Story Sharing Tool |
Wednesday, May 15, 2019 |
On May 15, news outlets reported that the Trump administration launched a “Tech Bias Story Sharing Tool,” an online form for members of the public to report cases where they believe they have been censored on social media. This letter is a request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. § 552, submitted on behalf of the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). We make this request to the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) as part of an ongoing effort to obtain government documents and make them widely available to the public.

Customs and Border Protection Response to EFF's February 2018 Letter on Biometric Identification Proposals |
Tuesday, May 22, 2018 |
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Privacy Office, and Office of Field Operations invited privacy stakeholders—including EFF and the ACLU of Northern California—to participate in a briefing and update on how the CBP is implementing its Biometric Entry/Exit Program. EFF has many concerns about the government collecting and using biometric identifiers, which we detailed in a letter sent to CBP. Below is CBP's response.

Urgent Reforms to Section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act |
Saturday, June 1, 2019 |
Section 215 of the Patriot Act allows the government to obtain a secret court order requiring third parties, such as telephone and Internet providers and financial institutions, to hand over business records or any other “tangible thing” if deemed “relevant” to an international terrorism, counterespionage, or foreign intelligence investigation. After a federal appeals court ruled that the government’s interpretation of Section 215 was “unprecedented and unwarranted,” Congress sought to end the NSA’s mass collection of phone records by passing the 2015 USA FREEDOM Act. However, recent official disclosures suggest that the will of Congress has been thwarted. Congress must examine these abuses of Section 215 before considering a reauthorization and make reforms to Section 215 to ensure that it is not misused to spy on Americans.

Cell Site Simulators |
Monday, November 26, 2018 |
Cell-site simulators (“CSS”), also commonly known as IMSI catchers or Stingrays, are devices that law enforcement uses to try to locate specific suspects. However, because CSSs cause the phone to connect to the device rather than the cell tower, they actively interfere in communications between cell phones and towers for every phone in the impacted area, including 911 calls.

Biometrics: Facial Recognition |
Monday, November 26, 2018 |
Some law enforcement and other government agencies like DMVs and the State Department collect photographs of people’s faces. The digital images are then converted into a mathematical representation of pre-designated measurements, often called a “face template,” and uploaded into a common database. Manufacturers and advocates for facial recognition technologies often present these systems as a “silver bullet” for law enforcement, but they are often error-prone and present serious challenges to privacy and due process.

Consumer Privacy Legislation One Pager |
Monday, November 26, 2018 |
Over 90% of Americans feel like they have no control over their data or their online privacy. Congress should be working to actively give them back their control, instead of letting the companies with the worst privacy track records dictate users’ legal rights. But any new federal data privacy regulation or statute must not preempt stronger state data privacy rules.
EFF emphasizes five concrete recommendations for any proposed legislation regarding the data privacy rights of users online:
- Requiring opt-in consent to online data gathering and sharing
- Giving users a “right to know” about data gathering and sharing
- Giving users a right to data portability
- Imposing requirements on companies for when customer data is breached
- Requiring businesses that collect personal data directly from consumers to serve as “information fiduciaries,” similar to the duty of care required of certified personal accountants.

Section 215 of the Patriot Act - Background and Questions |
Monday, November 26, 2018 |
Section 215 of the USA PATRIOT Act sunsets on December 15, 2019 (in addition to two other PATRIOT Act provisions). Before lawmakers can decide whether to allow this provision to sunset entirely, to reauthorize the programs without changes, or to include reforms along with reauthorization, Congress and the public need more information. EFF provides a list of questions NSA must answer.
