All the references are non-mainstream (Washington Post, NY Times, and
other mainstream outlets have not picked up the story yet....).

This will almost certainly go nowhere, for the exact same reason that
most of the lawsuits about warrantless spying went nowhere - nobody can
show proof they were actually spied on and therefor have standing to sue
as "plaintiff who was spied on".  Every single one of the warrantless
spying cases went bye-bye except for one law firm that got hold of an
accidentally released document showing that they were in fact targeted.
Valdis, I don't expect the victims (us) to find redress.

The lawsuit is a form of civil disobedience. See item 63 under
"Noncooperation with Social Events, Customs, and Institutions ,"
http://www.aeinstein.org/organizations103a.html.

What I find interesting is the suit is being minimized, much like the
folks in the Occupy movement. Contrast that to the media's coverage of
"Snowden the Traitor" stories. Do yo think the government (or the
oligarchy) is controlling the media?
