This is my problem with all of this. So far all we have is some rather vague statements and no proof or any wrong doing. Even when the press digs in this, they are finding that all of these actions are covered by US law.
Usually I don't give a crap what they do, and if it's in the name of terrorism I'm usually all for it. But this discussion eventually lead me to a four page "warrant" from Congress that seems to be a "blanket" warrant for a six month period - I believe it was for "Information related to terrorism" from Verizon. This might be legal, but I believe it is against the spirit of the law - they should a warrant for each case... Not a blanket warrant for "anything they believe is related to terrorism".
