A comment on Pentagon surveilling Americans without a warrant, Senator Wyden reveals. Parent comment
They are two different things in the eyes of the judiciary.
The military can get away with surveillance under the mandate of defending the United States from all threats, foreign and domestic.
The product of that surveillance, however, is not permissible as far as I know in a court of law unless it's specifically UCMJ.
Not a lawyer though. If one is around willing to enlighten us on this odd question, it'd be much obliged.
