So let's say you are a #ty person, but the evidence is Web based, they can without a doubt say it's you. It won't be used? You need the person to do the # in real life? But if someone else did it you are off the hook?
Strange system, so much s# walk free? just cause the law is dysfunctional?

So I'm just adding my own observations compileed from sitting right here over the years, from memory.
Before the wireless world, landlines were monitored for key words like drug talk (Kilo, pound, ounce, etc) to then kick in recording devices that taped a short bit of conversation to be reviewed later in case there was drug activity.
This was not done as 'tapping' individual lines it was a mass monitoring of all phone communications at the time (two guesses where this was occurring). It was addressed in the then media , such as "underground" newspapers and magazines , (not so main stream purveyors of more truth, back then) being considered generally accepted... i.e., watch what you say on the phone.
Problem then was the hard wired nature of phone systems back then made that difficult, more difficult than today where the whole world is gone wireless, and golfball shaped domed satellite dishes festoon the landscape monitoring every channel.
Combined with the yuuuge data centers that are sprouting to amass the volumes of transmissions for later review by advanced software they have been developing for decades (since those early days)...
and combining that with Snowdens revelations about the nature of total eavesdropping, collecting, sorting and storing that wireless activity...
ahh, who cares anyway?

There are those who care. People who break the law should be prosecuted - even if they are 'government'.

You may have missed the memo, but there was this big election thing and, apparently, Trump is now in charge of the government.
