My understanding is that this is unrelated issue to what Snowden disclosed.
> perhaps unsurprisingly it is still being fought in court, because the US government is very slow to investigate itself.
Perhaps, it is slow because it is complicated topic, which is not clearly described in constitution: where to draw the line for personal privacy.
- warent 5y agoYour understanding, based on ignoring the linked document? What government programs unrelated to Snowden's disclosure collect millions of Americans telephony metadata? Check page 13. They directly reference Snowden. I'm getting a strong sense that you are a troll.

Anyway, illegality of this program is not proven yet, all collection happened under FISA warrants as I initially said, I think this was the topic? > Your understanding, based on ignoring the linked document? I obviously didn't go through all 60 pages of court document, I believe it was your burden to provide exact citation to support of your point for the sake of discussion.
