You don't understand the technical issues in this data collecting/data mining. And you don't want to tell more people about it, not even some Judges, especially ones that will resign on you and go public. They might reveal our technical means. So I would trust any duly elected administration, Democrat or Republican, since they could save many lives by listening in on our dastardly terrorist enemies. If they listen in for political reasons, they will get caught.
"You don't understand the technical issues in this data collecting/data mining."
I understand far more than you suspect about this data collecting. I used to work at the NSA. Don't tell me what I know and don't know. You'll be wrong, every time.
