Another infuriating and disappointing move by the Obama administration. On the contrary, this will be challenged in the courts by groups like the EFF and ACLU until they've won.

Let's make Feds remember that they work for us instead of special interests, corporations and the military/surveillance-industrial complex.

Infuriating? This was exactly what everyone expected them to do. Of course they are going to rigorously defend their own spying program and using the best legal tactics available to them.

This isn't the "change" people voted for. That's why he's furious. He sadly mistook what a politician said to get votes for what he would actually do once in power. Most people make that mistake, I can't say I blame him.

It is both expected and infuriating.
