*URGENT* US LAW - UPDATED "RULE 41"

******************************************* ################################# !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ################################# *******************************************
URGENT: The FBI, CIA, and other law enforcement agencies get expanded powers to hack into your computer and phone on Thursday, December 1. Some senators are pushing legislation to stop them, but they need more senators to join them immediately.

Beginning at midnight on Thursday, December 1, 2016, anyone who uses a VPN, Tor browser, or simply disables location tracking on their phone, can more easily get hacked by the government.

The CIA, FBI, and other law enforcement agencies are scheduled to get expanded powers to remotely access and search computers, phones,
and storage devices in cases where people suspected of being “related” to a crime use technological means to conceal their location.

That is, unless Congress takes action to stop these hacking powers from taking effect.

Under current criminal procedure rules, if the FBI or any other agency wants to hack into your computer, they need to get a warrant from a federal judge located within your federal judicial district. Under a new amendment to the rule that takes effect on Thursday, if you use encryption, disable location tracking, or have been a botnet victim, the FBI can get a warrant to hack you from any of the nearly 3,000 federal district judges around the country.

The best thing you can do to stop the mass hacking rule is to call your senators.

Here’s what you should say when you call:

“I am a constituent from [town or city] and I am calling to urge the Senator to agree to unanimous consent on legislation to delay the Rule 41
changes on warrant requirements for government hacking of people’s computers.
This rule change could have a big impact on the privacy of all Americans and it should be debated by Congress before going into effect.”

You can find your senators’ numbers below.
