From The Washington Post:

“FBI general counsel Valerie Caproni said in an interview Monday that the FBI technically violated the Electronic Communications Privacy Act when agents invoked nonexistent emergencies to collect records.”

“FBI officials told The Post that their own review has found that about half of the 4,400 toll records collected in emergency situations or with after-the-fact approvals were done in technical violation of the law.”

“Among those whose phone records were searched improperly were journalists for The Washington Post and the New York Times, according to interviews with government officials.”

So that would constitute criminality no?
