The dragnet ends
Mass, suspicionless surveillance of U.S. citizens ends. A citizen is surveilled only on specific, articulable cause — direct foreign entanglements of money, channels, or communication — under a warrant that names it. Watching everyone to find anyone is not security; it is submission.
Your file, on demand
Every citizen may see, in full, the data that companies buy and sell about them through private channels — who collected it, who bought it, and what it says. No more learning from a scandal what a broker knew all along.
Paid, not farmed
A company that monetizes a citizen’s private data shares the revenue with that citizen. Consent becomes a transaction with a price, not a checkbox with a trap. Misuse at scale — the Cambridge Analytica playbook — carries liability to match the harvest.
No laundering through allies
What an American agency is forbidden to collect on a citizen, it is forbidden to receive from a foreign partner. Intelligence-sharing pacts do not become a side door around the Constitution.
Protect the ones who tell
A citizen who exposes unconstitutional surveillance of citizens is a witness, not a criminal. Whistleblowers reporting government abuse of this Article face no penalty for the disclosure that proves it.
