The PCLOB Report and Eight Questions About Section 702

[Commentary] On July 2, Professor Jennifer Granick posed the question: “Did PCLOB Answer My Eight Questions About Section 702?” She concludes that her questions went largely unanswered in the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board’s report on the surveillance program operated under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. I challenge that assessment.
