They basically accused him of being a Chinese Spy but instead charged him with Fraud. :|
- facetube 11y agoFISA's probably being cited there because the e-mail evidence was, in all likelihood, captured by the NSA. It turns out you don't need a dystopian future for unaccountable pervasive domestic spying to ruin lives, you just need an incompetent one.
- fweespeech 11y agoYeah, but in theory, the NSA/CIA are foreign surveillance and not to be used to gather evidence on domestic citizens.
- facetube 11y agoIn the most theoretical of theories.
