By using a National Security Letter, a demand sent to telecommunications firms to provide communications information about a specific federal target, Obama's DOJ and FBI were able to avoid legal requirements to receive a court-approved warrant to secretly spy on an American citizen.
Heheheh. But a NSL does not provide the "get out of jail for unconstitutional and illegal spying" card that a FISA warrant provides.
Law is ZERO impediment to the government. ZERO. Penalty for government not following the law? Rhetorical question.
Add to that, it is perfectly legal for the government to lie to and to withhold information from the public.
