You're implying here that the NSA or the US government is somehow bound by laws. I haven't seen any repercussions for the US's inhuman prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, the civilians murdered by the thousands (in total) in Iraq and Afghanistan, or the secret CIA prison facilities where fuck knows what happens.

Actually downandout wasn't implying that the NSA was bound by laws which prevented them from spying on US citizens, in fact downandout went to great lengths to specify that the scenario was hypothetical and unlikely.
