They also would allow the State Department to disclose visa information to foreign governments. · Extend secret surveillance of foreign spies and terrorists for up to one year with a court's permission. Current limits are up to 90 days. · Use a powerful 1978 anti-espionage law in investigations that aren't primarily focused on spying. · More easily obtain a judge's permission to determine who a spy or terrorist may be calling or e-mailing. · Collect DNA samples from people convicted of a wide range of terrorist-type crimes. · Use a single search warrant from a federal judge or magistrate to obtain copies of e-mail anywhere in the United States. Current law requires police to obtain warrants in the jurisdiction where the Internet provider is located. The government said time saved by investigators would "further public safety" in crimes where speed is important, such as kidnappings or threats to public safety or the economy. · Prosecute terrorists in court no matter how much time has passed since an attack. · Eavesdrop on terrorists or criminals who use cable-modem Internet connections; the 1984 Cable Act, which limits types of subscriber information cable companies can turn over, had raised questions about whether that law also applied to Internet traffic over cable lines. · Explicitly use information in U.S. criminal cases from wiretaps placed by foreign governments, unless those wiretaps were set up in violation of Constitutional protections with the "knowing participation" of U.S. prosecutors. · Obtain payment information, such as credit card numbers, from communications companies, such as Internet providers. The government said that, "remarkably," current laws allow police with a subpoena to obtain only a suspect's name, billing address and details about their service. · Monitor a company's computer networks, at the company's request, to detect hackers. Attackers "can target critical infrastructure and engage in cyberterrorism," the Justice Department said. · Obtain subscriber records disclosed voluntarily by Internet providers in "emergencies that threaten death or serious bodily injury." ------------------------ Yahoo!
