<p>While Americans are typically protected from unwarranted searches by the Fourth Amendment, some of their data gets caught when NSA collects intelligence on foreigners living overseas. This year&#8217;s report also reveals that the NSA monitored the communication of an estimated 164,770 foreign individuals or groups in 2018, compared to 129,080 in 2017. As <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2019/04/30/nsa-surveillance-spike/"><em>TechCrunch</em> reports</a>, that marks the largest year-over-year increase in foreign surveillance. In 2013, the NSA monitored the communication of just 89,138 foreigners.</p>
<p>Perhaps one silver lining is that the NSA collected fewer American phone records in 2018 &#8212; 434.2 million, down from 534.3 million in 2017. But that&#8217;s still a <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2018/05/05/nsa-534-million-call-text-logs-2017/">significant jump from 2016</a>, when it collected 151.2 million records. These numbers might look a bit different next year, as the NSA has formally recommended the White House <a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/04/25/nsa-drop-massive-phone-surveillance-spying/">drop the phone surveillance program</a> that collected that call information.</p>
<p>You can read the full report <a href="https://www.dni.gov/files/CLPT/documents/2019_ASTR_for_CY2018.pdf">here</a>.</p>
