It's the other way around. The laws in your country have no authority over the FBI.
- Nadya 10y agoWe spy on you, you spy on us. Then let's trade information (withholding the juicy bits for ourselves of course). Say it with me everyone: loopholes! Not that something being illegal has ever stopped governments before.
- herbst 10y agoI am not implying that. It just really annoys me that major media outlets use "legally" and "hacking the world" in the same sentence as if the U.S. were some kind of super power above the law. They took themself the right to hack everyone would be way more reflecting reality.

- herbst 10y agoThat is exactly what does not make sense to me. That would assume the FBI is some kind of world super power, which i am sure they like to think of themself.
- lightbyte 10y agoThe FBI isn't a world super power, but the government they are apart of it. What can country X do about the FBI hacking their citizens if the agency has the backing of the United States? Nothing really.
- herbst 10y agoThat is basically a act of war then isnt it? Definitly not "legally hacking the whole world". Even if they legally hacked my computer, they illegally hacked into my computer. I see no reason why i couldnt sue them about this (sure that would be laughed at, but still no is no "except the U.S. wants that" written on my local law) Also please go tell this to Russia or China or any other country the U.S. heavily depends on for their economy. Edit:// Except for keeping the dollar stable because that would influence our economy as well, i dont see how switzerland is depending on the U.S. a lot. China, that would be a real issue tho.
