"A few posts ago, you said you didn't claim anything illegal was going on." I hadn't at that point. I did later. Unless you live in an eternal "now" that should be easy to understand. You made a point of denying you'd claimed anything illegal was going on. Now you do claim something illegal is going on - though you have no proof except paranoid fears imo. "Does "what has been going on" mean who we're spying on and how?" Congress has asked and been rebuffed. Heck, the FISA court has asked with similar results. "Think maybe thats something we shouldn't broadcast to our enemies?" Who are our enemies? The members of the FISA court? Congress? Some members of Congress leak things like that. Certainly many of the lawyers suing the telecoms would leak it if they could. "But you don't know they aren't following the law!" Brumar, we do know they have engaged in illegal behavior in the past. Warrantless wiretapping was illegal until 2007. Period. You realize the US has been listening in on international communications - from one foreign location to another - for decades legally? Isn't the only thing different the technology - internet calls routed through the US from one foreign location to another?
