On what grounds? What arguments would you lodge against the eavesdropping and wiretap sections? Fourth Amendment? This is not an idle question; I'd actually be interested in pointers to analysis on the subject. But just as the Supremes have failed to strike down many unconstitutional laws, I suspect they can find a way to avoid having to do that (so much jurisprudence is devoted to how striking down laws by the judiciary should be a measure of last resort). -Declan
