I was specifically responding to the "illegal" comment. You made my obvious point, there has been no legal ruling. To me this goes hand in hand with the accusations of rape and murder against our soldiers, or the Duke case for that matter. There is a ton of rhetoric about murderers and rapists, but the trials have not been conducted. I know its a symptom of politics in the 24 hour news cycle, but that doesn't make it right.

>Interesting conundrum: How do you prove you've been eavesdropped on if the NSA's surveillance program is so secret? Frankly, it is too soon Jake, you know that. No cases have gone completely through the courts yet. Even so, with those pending, i don't know how they will 'prove' anything. Here are a couple to watch though:

>ACLU v. NSA, Docket No. 06-10204 (Michigan) US District Court
>Terkel v. AT&T, Docket No. 06-02837 (Illinois) (AT&T participation case)

>>Site the case where this has been proven please. Articles and opinions do not count, I'm talking about a legal ruling on the specific issue.
