> Parallel construction does NOT allow law enforcement to

I think we're beyond this point now. There is no "what we are allowed to do" vs "what we are not allowed to do". From what we have seen in the past few months, it's now a matter of "do what we want to do" and if we can't do it then we'll interpret the law.

There is probably even a team at the NSA whose sole purpose is parallel construction!
