1 edit | Re: Data used by NSA did have oversight - the US gov't said by jc100  :Maybe you need to read the constitution a bit better where it says there are courts in our system to make sure the government doesn't get too powerful. I think there's also something about guilty until proven innocent?
If you think 18 USC 2511's recognition of Executive power is unconstitutional, or was abused by that branch (or, misapplied by Congress when they referred to it as the basis for so-called "immunity"), the solution is to take your grievance to the court. Not sit around talking about how the current administration "broke the law."
I understand the EFF *finally* did this. Too bad they wasted a year on personal-injury lawsuits. All that did was force Congress to put even *more* congressional intent behind 18 USC 2511(!). A very important element in determining whether the President abused that law.
