This adds some context to the last article posted. I was intrigued by the point made at the end of the article that when the 4th amendment and wiretap laws threatened to get in the way of illegal domestic surveillance, the FBI outsourced those surveillance activities to other countries not bound by those civil rights laws to "launder" the evidence.
