@icedquinn @Hyolobrika Apparently it doesn't seems to be illegal to use monopolies as proxy-methods of censorship.
@lanodan @Hyolobrika i guess they would argue that creating an agency that just happens to do what congress may not do directly isn't "enacting a law."

judges are just retarded enough to bail them out that way

personally, i think the feds go in the woodchipper :blobcatovo:
@lanodan @Hyolobrika although i guess you could be a counter asshole and say that since you cannot enact any laws that abridge speech, then creating the FBI itself was illegal (because if it can be interpreted as having abridged speech then the creation itself was never valid.)

@lanodan @Hyolobrika@berserker.town @icedquinn

Some admins would be sadface to hear you say that on Fedi

@lucifargundam @Hyolobrika @icedquinn I've said quite some few times.
Many of the actions of NSA/CIA/FBI/… ought to be seen as highly illegal and honestly I don't get how they are still in operation.

@lanodan @Hyolobrika@berserker.town @icedquinn

Because the safety of the nation trump's individual freedom? At least that's the idea.

I'm in no way stating my stance on the topic- only conveying information.

@lucifargundam @Hyolobrika @icedquinn Good old USA's trademark of National Security, even when it's illegitimate.
