The Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board releases a report on how the NSA has interpreted Section 702 to conduct surveillance. The Board is optimistic about Section 702, noting: "Operation of the Section 702 program has been subject to judicial oversight and extensive internal supervision, and the Board has found no evidence of intentional abuse." Using flawed constitutional analysis,  the review board concludes that "the core of [the] program" is constitutional. While the Board acknowledges that "certain aspects of the program’s implementation raise privacy concerns," and may push the program "across the threshold of unreasonableness", the Board recommends only minimal procedural changes to the program.
