Unconstitutional surveilance programs?

I may very well be wrong, and if I am, this could be a major turning point on the Internet.

I'm skeptical that they have backdoors without the consent of those companies. I'm somewhat less skeptical that they have them with consent.

Given Verizon's willingness to turn over call metadata, it would not be without precedent.
