A Downtown attorney filed a federal lawsuit Monday against the president, the heads of the FBI and NSA, and others alleging the government is illegally monitoring his Internet communications, including email.I haven't been able to track down the complaint yet (so Attorney Schuchardt, if you're reading this please email it over).
Elliott Schuchardt filed the nine-page complaint in U.S. District Court, Downtown, claiming such a collection of data is unconstitutional without a warrant. Schuchardt said the government is collecting data through Yahoo, Gmail, Facebook and other means and storing information that includes bank account numbers, credit card numbers, health records, financial data and trade secrets.
Until can snag a copy of the complaint I don't have anything to say about it.
In the meantime, please peruse Glenn Greenwald's NSA documents.
