Feds can read your e-mail without warrants!

What happened to the Constitution? I guess most people don't care since most of the clowns in Washington were relected.

If the government wants to invade my privacy, go right ahead. I have nothing to hide. In fact, I have sent quite a few emails to the Whitehouse stating exactly how I feel about our current administration, and how screwed up it all is! Come and get me, put me on the list, whatever. Also, I actually don't disagree with this; whatever it takes to protect our country. Honest, law abiding citizens should have nothing to worry about. If more monitoring prevents America from being attacked from the outside/inside, I am fine with it. They watch us anyway, so now they are just letting us know they are doing it.

Does this mean they'll know what's in my "discreet packaging". :damnit:

Pretty sure that it will be monitored by non humans and only those mails that include key word or phrases will be tagged for actually human intervention.
an example would be if lets say I wrote an email that was in reference to the president of my daisy whiffing club being an idiot and included some less than desireable end of life options for him, it might or might not make the tagged list.
If I say I want to kill so and so, and call him out by name, I most likely wont get flagged. However, if I write that I want to kill the president of my daisy whiffing club, Im pretty sure that will get flagged for the use of words.
(just like this post is most likely going to get flagged somewhere)
