The Second Circuit rules the ACLU's lawsuit challenging the FISA Amendments Act can go forward. The government argues the case must be dismissed because the plaintiffs could not prove with certainty that their communications had been surveilled. But the court rules: "Because standing may be based on a reasonable fear of future injury and costs incurred to avoid that injury, and the plaintiffs have established that they have a reasonable fear of injury and have incurred costs to avoid it, we agree that they have standing."
