What exactly do you mean by this: It will be interesting who takes over domestic spying by foreign gov'ts.

That has always been the FBI's job, really tough to do without Nat'l security intel inputs. If all you get are the products it is impossible to prove a case as you are relying on analysis that isn't LE focused.

Hmm, I see. I was forgetting domestic terrorism by foreign elements. So is the FBI forbidden to do surveillance on, for instance, suspcious mohammedens? Probably I am too much a simpleton to delve any more into this topic, as interesting as it is.
