Patriot Act

Oh, dude, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act is all about making sure companies are honest about their financial shenanigans, while the US Patriot Act is like, "Hey, let's spy on people to fight terrorism." These laws have businesses sweating bullets over their information security, so they're slapping on firewalls, encryption, and all that jazz to keep their data safe. It's like a high-stakes game of digital hide and seek, man.

If you had your hazmat endorsement prior to 2005, in order to renew it, you had to pay something like $96 for a TSA background check. All new drivers who applied for a hazmat endorsement after the background checks were implemented had to do the same. A lot of drivers who had the hazmat endorsement prior to 2005, but were not actively using it, typically dropped the endorsement from their CDL - myself included.

The purpose of the Patriot Act is to strengthen the ability to deter and prosecute terrorist acts, not only in the United States, but around the world. The act also aims to improve law enforcement tools for investigation, prevent, and detect and prosecute money laundering and financing of terrorism internationally.

Aided by the us patriot act to provide more flexibility this act requires law enforcement agents to obtain a court order to monitor traffic flowing between network service providers for national security. Law enforcement is able to look at the people you are talking to or the sites you are visiting in order to keep the nation safe.

This is a highly contentious issue and opinions will vary. A lot depends upon whether a person's philosophical orientation is individualistic/libertarian or collectivistic/authoritarian.

To name the only positive that I am aware would be claimed, it may have resulted in some people not attacking us who otherwise would have. In fact, I think - while not liking the act - that it probably has deterred at least one amateur.

The opposite opinion would be that even if it did deter an attack or attacks, it comes at a cost that is higher than we may care to pay down the road. And that we might have been able to reduce attacks simply by changing some of our more controversial foreign policies.

Some people were concerned that the Patriot Act violated civil rights because it gives the federal government the power to wiretap the communications of suspected terrorists. They felt that this could be violating these terrorists rights, because they had not yet been convicted of any crime. Those defending the Patriot Act pointed out that in other situations of criminal justice, a conviction is not required to obtain wiretaps, to search homes, etc., only probable cause in the form of a warrant. They stated that the Patriot simply extends this power to the pursuit of terrorists; if the government has probable cause to believe he/she is a terrorist, they can wiretap his phone and monitor his communications in the interest of preventing an attack.

Congress passed the USA PATRIOT Act on October 26, 2001, barely six weeks after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The bill was passed with little debate at the height of the anthrax contamination scare when many lawmakers did not have access to their offices. Sen. Russell Feingold (D-WI), the lone dissenter in the Senate, remarked that few had even read summaries, let alone the fine print.

After the September 11, 2001 attacks, the US was concerned that legal obstacles to obtaining vital intelligence would allow similar attacks. Congress passed the Patriot Act to remove the previous restrictions on obtaining and sharing important information on possible terrorist activities. In many cases this allowed actions by government agencies that would previously have been illegal or even unconstitutional (wiretaps, surveillance, monitoring private transactions, and searching private homes and businesses).

All of these activities were deemed necessary to provide increased protection of the US public from terrorist activities.
