Republicans are trying to force through a bill which remove need for search warrant

Republicans have put a bill called the "Cloud Act" into a must pass Appropriation bill. The cloud bill removes the need for law enforcement to obtain warrant to get access to your data. Meaning they can just look at anyone's data for any reason they like.

Tech firms Facebook, Apple, Google, Microsoft and some others are all in favor of the bill because it removes their responsibly to protect your data so they won't have to worry about lawsuits and being served warrants..

This is your freedom loving Republicans at work... It's also a major power grab for the executive branch as it allows the AG to enter agreements with foreign govts and bypass Congress as well as our judicial system.. IE foreign govt could request your data and the AG could just give it to them with zero oversight..

This bill also allows foreign govts the ability to wiretap in the US..
