  • september 4-10 02 Hmmm... Madison should find this "Patriot Act" rather interesting. newumal sis newsmagazine Anti-terrorism legislation t)NVCamera Shy? Say, ffCheese'Band by Michael Davis I WCnewsmågåzine How do you feel about National IDs, Internet czars that monitor chat rooms and Internet activity, and public video cameras that use face recognition technology to scan for suspects? Imagine walking down the street and being video taped by cameras on every corner. Then imagine having to stop at the state line to produce an ID before being allowed to enter a neighboring state. While some of the mentioned scenarios are "could be" situations, other mentioned privacy issues are happening every day in the USA and across the globe. Beyond the millennium madness, George Orwell's "1984" has arrived in ae eyes of some Americans. Some civil liberty advocates are sa.ying that America now faces her biggest liberty challengcs with the passage of the 2001 USA Patriot Act. Unfortunately, the excessively large document officially know as "Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act (USAPA)" is impossible to fully understand by the majority and certainly too complex to encapsulate into one article. Its very name is an indicator of how long and arduous the document really is, and because of that fact much if its language will be the fodder of law enforcement, lawyers, judges and legislators for years to come. Before we begin looking at USAPA, let us establish that certainly no one should feel that in America everyone is entitled to anonymity. But we should always remind ourselves that our Fourth Amendment does entitle us to our privacy as long as we are not committing a crime. Our legal system still says you are innocent until you are proven guilty. In the post-terror frenzy, we must ask ourselves if our civil liberties have been or are being minimized in our efforts to be more secure? Only time will tell whether the USA Patriot Act of 2001, signed into law around last years Halloween holiday, was a trick, a treat, or what. At the bill signing Attorney General John Ashcroft told everyone, "Law enforcement will now have new weapons. A new era in America's fight against terrorism is about to begin." So far it seems the government already obtains more information than it can decipher without even having to delve into its expanded powers granted in the Patriot Act. Senate hearings and investigative reports have so far uncovered the fact that information that could have prevented the terrorist attacks was in the hands of the proper authorities well before September 1 1, 2001. The attacks were not caused because the FBI and CIA did not have access to needed information; the fact is they had the information that, if properly connected, could have prevented the disaster. The problem in preventing the attacks, according to the investigations so far came down to not enough Arabic translators and a lack of networked information between the various agencies that held the pieces of the terrorist's puzzle. Throughout the semester this ongoing analysis series will focus on bringing you important information regarding your personal privacy, freedom, liberty and pursuit of happiness that has been touched by the 2001 USA PATRIOT ACT and other pieces of post 9/11 "anti- terrorism" legislation.
