For John, BLUF: Surveillance is pervasive. Nothing to see here; just move along.
Can anyone explain what is really going on here? From ars technica we have this headline: "Judge allows US Marshals’ seizure of stingray♠ records, demises lawsuit: What began as request for info on cell tracking records turns into surreal tale."
Is it just this Administration that is hiding records? I doubt it, but there is the quip from George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley: “Barack Obama is really the President Richard Nixon always wanted to be.”

♠ From Wikipedia, "A stingray is a controversial electronic surveillance device for remotely capturing data from mobile telephones."

In terms of motivation, narcissism has always been stronger and more aggressive than paranoia. Nixon cannot and should not be compared to Obama. Nixon was an ardent conservative and patriot, determined to rid the US of dissidents and threats. Obama is an ultra progressive determined to completely change America in every conceivable way possible.
