The Espionage Act, which was passed in 1917, was used to prosecute individuals for anti-war and anti-government activities during World War I. However, by the mid-1920s, large-scale sedition prosecutions under this act had largely disappeared. The Sedition Act, Sabotage Act, and PATRIOT Act were not in effect during the 1920s.
