Givens has spoken out repeatedly about the potential abuse of government surveillance powers. In a 2013 article for the ''Harvard National Security Journal'' he argued that laws like the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, which dramatically expanded government surveillance authorities, become “sticky” over time without the inclusion of so-called sunset provisions. In May 2017, he gave an interview on WIBX in which he mused about the growth of government and private sector surveillance. | Givens has spoken out repeatedly about the potential abuse of government surveillance powers. | ||
