In re Directives to Yahoo! Inc. Pursuant to Section 105B of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act

FISCR holding that petitioner easily exceeded the threshold for standing, determining that the directives issued to communications service providers under the PAA, requiring production of customers’ data, were consistent with the statutory framing and the Fourth Amendment (as applied), and finding a Warrant Clause exception akin to the “special needs” exception for domestic foreign intelligence collection targeted at FPs/AFPs outside the United States.
