Earlier this year, Mike Pompeo laid out a road map for expanding surveillance:
Congress should pass a law re-establishing collection of all metadata, and combining it with publicly available financial and lifestyle information into a comprehensive, searchable database. Legal and bureaucratic impediments to surveillance should be removed. That includes Presidential Policy Directive-28, which bestows privacy rights on foreigners and imposes burdensome requirements to justify data collection.
He also said that using strong encryption for personal communication ‘may itself be a red flag,’ suggesting that good security practices could invite government scrutiny under his watch.
