NEW YORK -- The Obama administration has overseen a sharp increase in the number of people subjected to warrantless electronic surveillance of their telephone, email and Facebook accounts by federal law enforcement agencies, new documents released by the American Civil Liberties Union on Friday revealed.

The documents, released by the ACLU after a months-long legal battle with the Department of Justice, show that in the last two years, more people were spied on by the government than in the preceding decade.

The thing I take issue with is the warrantless part of the surveillance, DOJ should have a valid reason before they are allowed to pry into anyones life and signed by a judge. I was against all the government surveillance under the Bush administration as well.
