The Obama administration has legally been allowed to read the emails and listen in on phone calls of Americans since 2011. A surveillance court granted the NSA permission to search Americans' communications in order to spy on citizens two years ago. The Washington Post broke the news that the high court lifted a 2008 ban on such surveillance activities which was imposed in 2008. The court also extended the length of time the NSA can keep intercepted communications from five to six years.
