“The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court has renewed permission to the U.S. government for a controversial program to collect telephone metadata in bulk. The office of the Director of National Intelligence said the government filed an application with the FISC seeking renewal of the authority to collect telephony metadata in bulk, and the court renewed that authority, which expired on Friday. The information was being disclosed ‘in light of the significant and continuing public interest in the telephony metadata collection program,’ and an earlier decision by DNI James R. Clapper to declassify certain information relating to the program, it said.”
