Privacy Board Rules NSA Methods Consitutional (http://www.wirelessweek.com/news/2014/07/privacy-board-rules-nsa-methods-consitutional)
In a report released Tuesday night, the bipartisan, five-member Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, appointed by President Barack Obama, largely endorsed a set of NSA surveillance programs that have provoked worldwide controversy since they were disclosed last year by former NSA systems administrator Edward Snowden.
The board's validation of the controversial NSA surveillance program stands in contrast to its last report in January, when it argued that the NSA's collection of domestic calling records under Section 215 was unconstitutional. The Obama administration disagreed but has proposed to overhaul the program by ending NSA's collection of the records.
Looks like the White House memo finally reached them. Now we can all march happily in lock step.
