How does this jive with the Posse Comitatus Act? The NSA is a military operation, and the FBI is a domestic operation. Surely there is information that should be shared between them, but a firehose from one to the other, no matter how limited, seems to be a reasonably clear violation.

We now have clear evidence that 'for foreign investigation' is absolutely no boundary to domestic collection. Why would such a limitation be any different here than it was (not) for the NSA's collection?
