If you have evidence of possible illegal activity by someone in your jurisdiction then a court will grant surveillance. That's due process.

But there saying "We have no evidence, but we think they might and this is the only way we will get the evidence." Really? The only way we can prove there is a crime?

And what is Feinstein's colossal hard on for giving the spooks yet more spying powers? Does she not realize what a guaranteed back door in US made products, or designed products, will do to the Californian economy?
