    Sounds like the problem is more that they’re for sale in the first place, not that they don’t have a warrant. They don’t need it because our privacy laws are so outdated and ineffectual(/nonexistent).

      Yeah like I feel that the headlines are missing the forest through the streets. If there is enough important information available about individuals that the NSA would find it useful and worth buying, we need to ensure that it’s stopped at the source and not available to anyone.
