What exactly was illegally collected?
Data from google, Microsoft, facebook, and other sources by tapping into their private servers. (https://search.wikileaks.org/?q=NSA) they have been caught many times getting data from private tech firms and citizens. We already know key words trigger an alarm within their system, which is a cause for alarm. If one wanted to search for information on Isis, you would to be masked behind a VPN, a proxy, a virtually machine, then another proxy inside the Linux based OS, connected to Tor, and once inside Tor, you have to connect to proxy based website, after all that there is little chance they would be able to find out who is looking for info on Isis.
That's a mouth full of steps just to get info without getting put on a watch list. Not even that is a 100% though, if you want to be as close to 100%, you would need a burner computer that has never been connected to your own home wifi. By means of public Wifi, you repeat the steps, save the documents to a flash drive. Then your a bit safer from the prying eyes of the NSA and CIA. It seems like a lot of work if your not doing any illegal, but they have no right to put people on a watch list just for trying to get info on something.
Thanks for the link but I saw nothing about illegal activity and I'm not going to do your work. What specifically have they done that has been considered illegal by the courts (US or International)? I understand that you don't like their activities but that was not my question. They may have done many illegal things, I just don't know about them. This is your chance to educate me with some specifics.
