20 nov 2001 anni - Patriot Act

Descrizione:

Congress passed the USA Patriot Act, which provided law-enforcement agencies and the Justice Department more power in investigating and dealing with suspected terrorists, loosened constraints on wiretaps and internet monitoring, and allowed for the detainment and deportation of non-citizens believed to pose risks to national security. The act proved controversial as many viewed its measures as unconstitutional infringements on American civil liberties.
