It turns out that the surveillance of Americans may be even more dangerous and unsupervised than had been heretofore acknowledged- but the powers that be aren’t willing to admit it. The National Security Agency (NSA) admitted in a secret briefing that its analysts can decide to listen to Americans’ phone calls without legal authorization.

what do they think this is. a party line?

But one proviso of the law was that the NSA could not “intentionally target any person known at the time of acquisition to be located in the United States." The NSA apparently circumvented that by assuming that by sweeping up all information domestically, the gathering of information was not intended to "target" a specific American.

So they collect everything and can access all your previous communications and all they need is a simple court order apparently. This also means that to be legal, they had to also store every government communication.
