CIA nominee Mike Pompeo has called on Congress to rein in the phone metadata collection program. Some senators questioned what limits Pompeo would accept on such a massive surveillance database. Pompeo: “I take a backseat to no one in protecting American’s privacy” He said intelligence agencies should do “all they can, in a lawful, constitutional manner to collect foreign intelligence important to keeping America safe” Senators also asked Pompeo his views on encryption in light of Trump’s criticism of Apple for refusing to help the FBI unlock an iPhone.”]
