USA PATRIOT Act

Overview

The USA PATRIOT Act, commonly referred to as the "Patriot Act", was introduced to the 107th US Congress House of Representatives on October 23, 2001, where it passed with a vote of 357 to 66 (the motion was to suspend the rules and pass the bill) on October 24; all but two senators voted "Yea" (Russ Feingold voted "Nay" and Mary Landrieu did not vote) on October 25, and it was signed into U.S. law by President George W. Bush on October 26.

Its official description is "A bill to deter and punish terrorist acts in the United States and around the world, to enhance law enforcement investigatory tools, and for other purposes."

Workarounds

rsync.net seems to have come up with the idea of a "warrant canary", which gets around the provision prohibiting businesses from notifying their customers if they have been served a warrant by maintaining a notice stating that they haven't yet been served and promising to remove the notice if they ever are served: [1]

notes

It's not clear which part of the Act relates to this; possibly the section in the 2005 reauthorization entitled "SEC. 106. ACCESS TO CERTAIN BUSINESS RECORDS UNDER SECTION 215 OF THE USA PATRIOT ACT." To be researched later.
thomas.loc.gov NEEDS a way to get a permanent link to documents found from a search!!! Wikipedia currently links to expired searches for all the 2005 Reauthorization stuff. (In the meantime, of course, we can feel free to transcribe stuff into Issuepedia... this makes it much more readable, but is still a lot of work.)
