While people in the west have been smugly pointing fingers at China, their own governments did everything they've been denouncing in China and worse. Congratulations.

... wtf is going on over there... What kind of douchebags did you guys elect? I mean, I'm American, I know I can't throw stones here, but y'alls were better than that. You like, wisely stood against our 9/11 invasion and we probably should've listened.
But, wtf?
btw, if anyone was too lazy to dig, this publication is a nigerian newspaper that actually seems legit. Founded in 2020, so pretty new still. Looking at their front page they mostly just do local reporting. Has had run-ins with local power.
You know that America just... does this, right? No bill, no law... In fact it was the first to do this at all. It's why in crime shows they remove the battery (from phone where you still can, of course.)
It would require a warrant signed by a judge with probable cause.
Wiretap warrants aren't easy.
Sorry for the late response, but remind me again how many warrants the FISA court has denied?
That's an approval rate of 99.97%
