Um... it wasn’t illegal. It was all made legal thanks to the PAtriot Act.
If that is legal why not simply put a LEO inside of every home. By you logic that is legal too.
The Patriot Act was conceived in secrecy BEFORE George W. Bush was even President. It's details were neither debated OR read by legislators.
It's broad-sweeping confiscatory powers of private data violate the 4th Amendment, thus making it an illegal and unconstitutional instrument that's eventually been used to spy on....American citizens without their consent. In the hands of the Kenyan and his minions, it's been a sledgehammer of intimidation and blackmail.
Think about it. Do you REALLY support this?
