"The legislation still:

- Includes a weak standard for review that does not rise to the protections of the warrant requirement under the 4th Amendment.

- Fails to require foreign law enforcement to seek individualized and prior judicial review.

- Grants real-time access and interception to foreign law enforcement without requiring the heightened warrant standards that U.S. police have to adhere to under the Wiretap Act.

- Fails to place adequate limits on the category and severity of crimes for this type of agreement.

- Fails to require notice on any level – to the person targeted, to the country where the person resides, and to the country where the data is stored."
