    Honestly the only thing that surprises me is that they’re paying for information instead of somehow just taking it.

      Legal loophole, asking for it requires courts or judges. Buying it is just a cost.

      Honestly I don’t see why buying data on the open market is illegal. I think it shouldn’t be legal to sell it but it is. I’d prefer nobody have access than the NSA pretend they don’t see what anyone else can buy.
