Good discussion! I think Gandalf is technically correct about installing spyware/keyloggers/et al without permission being illegal. The article you reference indicates that the DEA received a warrant from the judge before doing so (same as for most wiretaps here, too).

Does that mean the USA always follows their own rules? Are the rules fair in the first place? Probably not. As they say, power corrupts. But then, is there any government that doesn't have problems?
