In Response To: Even more big brother? (very OT) (Bill Riles)

I also don't understand what Achim is worried about and also don't understand why he finds it so puzzling that Congress passed this law. If you're not talking to/emailing/text messaging terrorists, this law will have zero effect on you. If an American is talking to a terrorist, or if 2 terrorists are talking to each other, I have no problem with the NSA listening in, with or without a warrant. It seems like a common sense law to me since it makes it harder for the enemy to communicate with each other.
