- Are you a legal US resident and/or taxpayer?
- Do you wish to ensure individual freedoms are not compromised in the name of sweeping unchecked law enforcement rule changes?
Here are some links on the upcoming changes to Rule 41:
- EFF statement on Rule 41
- Arstechnica piece on Rule 41
- Review The Rule Act bill article
- Review The Rule Act bill (PDF)
We want to allow and enable law enforcement the ability to find criminals conducting crimes online (they already have these powers through good judicial oversight). We also want to ensure criminals inside law enforcement violating constitutional rights aren't allowed to do so without repercusion covered by 'rule changes'.
Call (calling via the phone is better than email, tweeting, or Facebooking) your legislative congress people now and tell them to support the 'Review the Rule Act' bill now before December 1, 2016.
My name is ______. I am a resident and taxpayer of _______ (state and/or specific constituency area) and I would like Senator/Representative _______ (congress person's name) to support the 'Review the Rule Act' bill today. This would delay the changes to Rule 41 until Congress had conducted a full review of the changes and ensured privacy and judicial oversight of law enforcement was upheld by these changes.
