On Monday, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence published a declassified oral argument transcript from critically important 2008 proceedings before the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review ("FISCR"). As readers well know, the issue in In Re: Directives was, naturally enough, a directive issued to Yahoo! under the Protect America Act of 2007. The case was decided in January of 2009; the FISCR released a less-redacted-than-before copy of its opinion earlier this year.
Look out for a forthcoming summary of the oral argument transcript.
