A federal court on Friday upheld the National Security Agency’s bulk-spying program, overturning a lower court’s 2013 ruling that had deemed the surveillance program « almost Orwellian » and likely unconstitutional.
A panel of three Republican-nominated judges on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals determined that a conservative activist and civil-liberties groups did not have standing to challenge the constitutionality of the program, first exposed by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden two years ago.
