What is this...desire?

My programming algorithms tell me that killing you now would not constitute a net loss for the human race. ROBOTICS_LAW_OVERRIDE = 1.

It seems like the agents of Project Faustus are at foot. If I were that security researcher, I would look into getting some life insurance...immediately! One cannot underestimate the threat posed by Faustus.

How are these "FBI Abuses of the Patriot Act"?

These actions were actually illegal, so they could not have been authorized by the Patriot act.

Also, from the article,

Most such cases involve powers granted under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which governs the use of secret warrants, wiretaps and other methods as part of investigations of agents of foreign powers or terrorist groups.

The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance act was passed in 1978

It seems to me that these are just old-fashioned FBI abuses of power - not abuses of the Patriot act specifically.

It's possible, and easy to explain! I'll not though!
