thank you for the reply.
A legitimate question because I really don't know.
It appears the renegade fed spy agencies will do what they want to do when they want to do it no matter what rules are in place. Rules are for others but not them apparently.
I guess what I am wondering is whether there is any real way to keep down the totalitarian power that the various spy agencies apparently exercise and make them accountable?
Unless there is a BIG HAMMER somewhere that will be used I cannot see what would slow down the abuses.
And oversight of these rogue elements needs to be established and utilized with real teeth so they give second thought about being in violation of people's rights. I see no deterrent or repurcussions for bad behavior at this time..
Any ideas? TKS!
