Re: Revealed: NSA collecting phone records of millions of Americans daily
Did the Bush Administration perform wholesale warrant-less wiretapping of entire telecom subscribers? If so, that would have been horrible too.
edit: And more to the point, this isn't warrant-less wiretapping, its data mining, and guess what? It was asinine then, and its asinine now.
I'm talking specifically about general warrantless wiretapping. That can of worms was opened during the Bush era... in the name of protecting against terrorists. :roll:
