Zusammenfassung:Wheeler talks about the government's collection and storing of Americans' call data. The collection doesn't include the content of communications, merely metadata and the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court limits the circumstances under which the government can access this information. The court only allows the data to be queried when there is a reasonable suspicion, based on specific facts, that the particular basis for the query is associated with a foreign terrorist organization.
