Under the Patriot Act, the U.S. government gained expanded surveillance and intelligence-gathering powers to combat terrorism. This included the ability to conduct wiretaps, monitor internet communications, and access personal records held by third parties without a warrant in certain situations. The Act also facilitated information sharing between government agencies and allowed for the detention of individuals suspected of terrorist activities. Critics argue that these measures infringe on civil liberties and privacy rights.

(so they were happy, that they weren't British). And the Protestants (unionists) wanted to stay in Ireland and be under a British government, which this act made them, so that they could have all the benifits of being in Britain.
