Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court  

Définition

  • The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) was created with the passage of the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). FISA, signed into law by President Jimmy Carter in 1978, was an outgrowth of the Church Committee hearings that revealed extensive abuses by government agencies in the 1960s and early 1970s related to warrantless electronic surveillance.
