> USA reading your mail: Business as usual.
According to the first paragraph of the article you linked:
"NSLs can only request non-content information, such as transactional records, phone numbers dialed or email addresses mailed to and from."
According to the sample NSL from the article you linked:
"We are not directing that you provide, and you should not provide, information pursuant to this letter that would disclose the content of any electronic communication. [...] Subject lines of emails and message content are content information and should not be provided pursuant to this letter."
So NSL is not the USA "reading your email."
I'm not defending the NSL, but I am opposed to misinformation, as well as the frequent attempts to paint the USA as being just as bad as China.
