Privacy Concerns
...I have been concerned for years about the violation of privacy that occurs in the name of spying. Now it seems that a judge has ruled that the warrantless listening to cell phone calls is a constitutional violation of privacy.

...I was a resident of Texas while George W. Bush was Governor, and on at least one occasion he announced that he was going to push for legislation that he knew was unconstitutional, and that he would see in court anyone who disagreed. He knows that the process of decisions and appeals takes way too long and in this present matter, he will simply appeal the decision all the way to the Supreme Court. It will be interesting to see what a conservative-led court will rule.



...I believe that there will still be the avenue of seeking for warrants based upon a logical reason to spy on someone's private calls. That will still be available for spying on suspected terrorists.
