I mean that in all seriousness. DoJ and the FBI have pushed the statutory envelope on CALEA, in my opinion. Different lawyers will often disagree on what the law actually requires (I'm not even talking about what it should require); it's worth getting other perspectives. Education on this subject is good. When NANOG met in DC a few years ago, I personally invited a DoJ attorney to speak on Sunday on wiretap law (http://www.nanog.org/mtg-0010/justice.html). I'm not unsympathetic to legitimate law enforcement or national security needs, and I'm aware that ISPs need to obey the law. But DoJ needs to obey it, too. --Steve Bellovin, http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~smb
