Re: Dear Ferals

To be fair they could have just infected the machines without asking and faked the source of the intelligence later, like they have with the Stingray phone trackers.

They asked for and got a warrant, so they were at least trying to comply with the law. They just screwed up and asked the wrong judge, if they had asked the right one they would have been fine.

It was a screw-up, not a deliberate attempt to circumvent warrants, IMO.
