This document page (158) details the history of NSA surveillance expansion following the 9/11 attacks, specifically focusing on the USA Patriot Act of 2001 and the FISA Amendments Act of 2008. It discusses the conflict between government intelligence gathering and privacy advocates (hacktivists), the technical measures taken to bypass encryption/TOR, and the subsequent bureaucratic compliance framework established involving the DOJ and DOD. While part of a larger House Oversight cache, this specific page contains no direct mention of Jeffrey Epstein or his associates.
