It is the sense of Congress that— the acquisition of communications by the National Security Agency under section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act ( 50 U.S.C. 1881a ) should respect the norms of international comity by avoiding, both in actuality and appearance, targeting of foreign individuals based on unfounded discrimination or for the purpose of affording a commercial competitive advantage to companies and business sectors of the United States; and the collection of intelligence under such section 702 is meant to shield the United States, and by extension, the allies of the United States, from foreign security threats.
