Inresponsetotheattacks,Congressquicklypassedlegislationthatincludedprovisionsexpandingrightsofinvestigatorstointerceptwire,oralandelectroniccommunicationsofallegedhackersandterrorists.CivillibertiesgroupsexpressedconcernsovertheprovisionsandurgedcautioninensuringthateffortstoprotectournationdonotresultinbroadgovernmentauthoritytoerodeprivacyrightsofU.S.citizens.Nevertheless,causingfurtherconcerntocivillibertiesgroups,theDepartmentofJusticeproposedexceptionstotheattorney-clientprivilege.OnOct.30,AttorneyGeneralJohnAshcroftapprovedaninterimagencyrulethatwouldpermitfederalprisonauthoritiestomonitorwireandelectroniccommunicationsbetweenlawyersandtheirclientsinfederalcustody,includingthosewhohavebeendetainedbutnotchargedwithanycrime,wheneversurveillanceisdeemednecessarytopreventviolenceorterrorism.
