Why can't we go after surveillance using existing wiretap laws? If they share the surveillance we go after everyone using it under RICO.

In part because the same investigatory bodies that would investigate and issue those charges benefit greatly not only from our country's mature surveillance infrastructure and the data it sucks up, but also from the friendly partnerships they have with the companies that own the surveillance infrastructure.
