Magnus Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 This article by Glenn Greenwald (no right-winger, he) asks the question -- how is it that, in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing, was the FBI able to learn the contents of telephone communications between the elder bomber Tamerlan and his wife? It's simple: every telephone conversation Americans have with one another on US soil, with or without a search warrant - "is being captured as we speak". ... All digital communications - meaning telephone calls, emails, online chats and the like - are automatically recorded and stored and accessible to the government Well, that's that.
