Before even the Patriot Act which was the basis of the formation of the NSA

Citation needed

How do you think Courts could Supena phone/text records? lmao

Are you going to give me a citation or not

Is a wiretap a warrantless search, or not?

Give me a damn moment Ma

Fuck I don't shit sources

Does anyone have a link to the Swedish elections

Well fuck. I come with 2.
I didn't realize the NSA has been around since 52.
However, the part we are focusing on didn't start in earnest until 2010.
The Abruptness means the companies already had the infrastructure to do this.
As well calls themselves (As in recordings of) seems rather washy if they actually do that outside of calls "Recorded for Training Purposes" kinda thing. The FCC has regulations on this as well.

Yea the agency was far different back then

And there's been rumors of the NSA wiretap rooms being around for almost 2 decades

It's been almost 2 decades since 2001. lol

Yes, but earlier than 2010

We were talking cell phone database recordnings

The shit you signed the right to over to private companies

Oh, I was talking physical infrastructure

Floki delivered on citations

The shit Snowden whistle blowed

I usually do, but just not quickly

Cause I like to be precise and check multiple.

My man

I was hoping for something not wikipedia

To be frank

1) Wiki
2) Doubt it didn't exist for actual legal survellance

"legal surveilance"

You know, against actual Terrorist Cells, ect.

There are LEGAL forms of surveilance

Half the US is on a list these days, tbh

No

Your confusing No Fly with Terrorist

ACTUAL Terrorist list isn't that large

You think they don't cross reference those two?

You can get on the No Fly for anything, Terrorist lists have actual reasons

How many degrees of separation did they say legally could be wiretapped?

Hey I gonna do a patrol, so I leave this discussion for another time.

Perhaps next time we can stay focused on rights vs the state
