A senior senator revealed on Thursday that the National Security Agency (NSA) has been clandestinely purchasing Americans’ internet records and utilizing them for surveillance purposes without obtaining a warrant.

Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon, a Democrat, described the practice as existing within a “legal gray area,” where data brokers discreetly acquire and resell internet “metadata” without users’ consent.

Wyden asserted that the NSA has sought to keep this activity concealed.

In a letter addressed to Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines, Senator Wyden emphasized the need for a “wake-up call” within the government.

He called for the establishment of new regulations that would limit purchases to data explicitly consented to by Americans, the Washington Times has reported.
