How do you feel about the fact that the moderators of /r/worldnews have a policy of filtering any links from The Intercept as "Opinion," even when the link is to an original news report?

I can't believe that a FISA court or multiple layers of DOJ would, for instance, approve the email monitoring of the Exec Dir of the largest Muslim American civil rights organization in the country which, if anything, is notorious for being too moderate and too cooperative with the US Govt.

Really? Your own story states the FISA court that in the 35 years it has existed, the FISA court has only said 'no' 12 times. Out of 35,000 requests. How can anyone have faith in a "court" that has such predictable outcomes?

Newspapers: "NSA and FBI documents show spying on civil rights activists"

DNI: "Oh, no, we would never do that. But we can't comment on those documents, or deny that they are real."

Sounds legit.
