Senator Ron Wyden has expressed concerns about the program’s legality and shared confidential information with US Attorney General Merrick Garland. Leaked documents reveal the extensive use of DAS data for various purposes, raising questions about its legality and scope. The program has received over $6.1 million in funding since 2013.
