The bill in question is H.R. 7888: Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act: To reform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978.
The concerning section of the text of the bill in question.
Elizabeth Goitein’s claims are not correct as the amendment is more narrowly defined as she has claimed. But the amendment is still overly broad and an inappropriate overreach of government surveillance.
Elizabeth Goitein is Co-director of the Liberty and National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice.
FYI, the article got the date of the House vote incorrect (it was Friday April 12, not Saturday April 13).

Collect this article as NFT, wtf??? Sorry, I am not sure I can trust that site on anything now.

My immediate reaction was the same. I don’t trust the NSA at all, but I’m certainly not going to trust anything this site says when it’s shilling the article as an NFT.

OP actually posts a lot of sources, but it’s probably a bot.
I have seen more than few accounts that soley post this website though. It’s obvious all their articles are fearmongering to encourage crypto.

Sorry about that, the headline was caught my attention while I was surfing… You should ignore the crypto / nft thing

What does it even mean to collect it as an nft?!

Nothing, really.
It means you get a little certificate.
That says you own the article.
But you can’t edit it.
But you can show it to your friends.
But not if the site is down.
And the resale is gonna be like, whoa~
Maybe $50 less than you paid for it.
But the sentimentality is worth it.
You should definitely get two.

You get a special unique(?) cryptographic token containing a link to the article, presumably.

Keyboard keys are a giveaway as well, I’d bet money it’s AI generated.
