The legal basis for the program, Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act, is set to expire on New Year’s Eve and, as a result, national security officials have urged Congress for a year-and-a-half extension. Section 702 allows the government agencies to gather information such as phone calls, emails, texts, among other things, from domestic companies, including AT&T and Google.
