In 2011, the court found that one aspect of that NSA program was illegal and unconstitutional. The opinion now declassified 4 makes the court's concern clear: "For the first time the government has now advised the court that the volume and nature of the information it has been collecting is fundamentally different from what the court _3_ believe." The reference was to e-mails inadvertently collected because they were embedded 5 in larger e-mail bundles the NSA had intercepted 6.Tom Gjelten, NPR News, Washington.
