sokoloff is right.
This is why warrants exist. If those private conversations turn towards criminal action, then the government can take action. Until then, there is nothing to act upon - speech is "free".
- dmurray 6y agoI think sokoloff is going further than you: he thinks private conversations should be "sacrosanct", you seem to think they should be intercepted by anyone who suspects they "turn towards criminal action" and can reach the low bar of obtaining a warrant.
- alistairSH 6y agoThat bar is currently too low (FISA and all the other post-9/11 nonsense), IMO, but generally, yes.
