No surprise here, but a good comprehensive overview. When the author says that NSA can look at the header and address of packet-based information, a key issue will be the rules for conducting what is called "Deep Packet Inspection." If NSA claims rights to do full DPI, which it can do using the equipment of several companies already in the field, it can go beyond the packet header and look at the content of messages. You can be sure that the U.S. Congress is not keeping up with all these changes in the current FISA debate.
