Karen Greenberg, director of the Center on National Security at Fordham Law School, was quoted in an article in The Intercept about the FBI’s use of informants in counterterrorism sting operations.
“Agencies are under a lot of pressure to find a needle in a haystack, something that has haunted us since the beginning of the war on terror,” said Karen Greenberg, director of the Center on National Security at Fordham Law School. “It’s true that the internet has changed everything about how we communicate, but are we just going to be trawling online forever? It turns the principles of criminal investigation on their head.”
