We aren't upset that the FBI "did what anyone else would do". We're upset that the FBI used this to do an end-run around the federal laws.

- Teever 4y agoI'm pretty sure they can't without a warrant because that's harassment? Which brings us to another point. If I was to meticulously stalk and document the activities of one individual that would obviously be stalking -- but if a group does that to everyone that's a successful business? How does that work?
