National Security Letters Ruled Unconstitutional

An AP article published today states that U.S. District Judge Victor Marrero has ruled the use of NSLs unconstitutional. This clause of the PATRIOT Act allowed federal investigators to access customer records without judicial review (i.e. a subpoena). This is great. Big kudos to Judge Victor Marrero.
