More documents have been yanked out of the NSA‘s hands, thanks to a New York Times FOIA lawsuit. The documents are from 2007, and they further detail the agency‘s warrantless surveillance program which swept up not only phone numbers but also email addresses and content. The program wasn‘t actually legal at the time it rolled out. It took the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to codify this. In the meantime, the agency used interim legislation (2007‘s Protect America Act) and some hubris to enhance its haystacking business.
