“Is the government spying on Americans legal and lawful under the Constitution? Perhaps you’ve delegated that decision to the ‘experts’, but my advice is go check it yourself. See the Amendments that cover being secure in your papers and effects. The Constitution isn’t a hard read, although there are many that want to pretend words don’t mean what they obviously mean. You are naïve to expect some politician or bureaucrat will protect your ownership interests, also known as rights. It’s truly up to you to carefully read the contract between you and the government and to verify that the government is living up to its part of the bargain. If you don’t know how to run your government it will run you.”
