US surveillance of citizens declines in 2022.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) has reported a "significant decline" in the number of FBI queries into US citizens under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) between 2021 and 2022. The FBI conducted approximately 204,000 queries, a 95% drop from the previous year's reporting period. The report also shows the FBI opened "zero" investigations into US persons who are not considered a threat to national security. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are proposing reforms in order to reauthorize FISA Section 702, with more congressional oversight.
