For those of you claiming this is better because there is a warrant.

97. It most certainly does

It involves calls in the US, local and statewide, and calls by people in the US to foreign countries. I have no idea what you read, but I know what I read. I also brought up the 25 years thing, which was what some people were trying to pass off as justification ("but there's a warrant"!).

I'm clearing up some of the talking points that are deliberately trying to misinform people. You are using one of them - the "it's not people in the US", not that it would be less heinous if it was just US citizens calling people in foreign countries. What the fuck do local calls need to be monitored for? What does it matter if John Doe calls his grandmother in Atlanta from Savannah?

You are welcome, I'm glad I could clear that misconception up for you, because I'm sure you had only the best intentions for interjecting that into the conversation.
