ANNA DIGGS TAYLOR, federal judge, ruling that the NSA's no-warrant surveillance program violates the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits unreasonable search and seizure...

Several security experts interviewed by TIME said they hope the London plot encourages Americans to do more sophisticated profiling of suspects. The U.S. already profiles all passengers, using computer software. But the methodology is outdated. The system searches for people who pay with cash or book their flight less than 24 hours in advance. The country has a legal, moral and political aversion to officially sanctioned discrimination.
