TOTAL AWARENESS - EMAIL IS NEXT
Behind closed doors in Washington, American officials are shaping an overhaul of the 1994 federal statute that requires phone and broadband carriers to ensure their networks can be wiretapped.

In earlier court rulings, in January 2009, the federal intelligence court itself issued a rare public ruling upholding the 2007 law, validating the power of the president and Congress to wiretap international phone calls and intercept e-mail messages without a specific court order, even when Americans’ private communications may be involved. The decision by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review, actually reached the previous August, upheld a secret 2008 ruling issued by the intelligence court that it oversees, the FISA court.
In April 2009, officials revealed that a Justice Department review found that since the passage of the Protecting America Act the NSA intercepted private e-mail messages and phone calls of Americans on a scale that went beyond the broad legal limits established by Congress.

Is Snooping In Your Spouse’s E-mail a Crime?
Of course it is. But anybody in the committee complex can access and snoop all they want. Thanks Barry for stepping up the FISA crimes.
Remember COTO, it's a crime only when you do it. Get that drummed into your heads.
