Re: Corps

I believe you are referring to 'ex post facto' laws. Or laws that are made after the fact.

It IS unconstitutional to pass a law to make an action illegal, and then prosecute those who committed the actions while it was legal.

I am almost 100% sure that it is NOT unconstitutional to make something legal, and then effectively offer a pardon for such an action.

Re: Corps

That's correct. In this case they aren't making spying on Americans legal, of course if they can pardon corps everytime then it's effectively legal. Be sure to vote out your representative if they let Verizon and ATT get away with it.
