NSA knows who you've called.

[Daniel F. Fisher]

See also Title 18 section 2703(c)(2):

"(2) A provider of electronic communication service or remote computing 
service shall disclose to a governmental entity the - (A) name; (B) 
address; (C) local and long distance telephone connection records, or 
records of session times and durations; (D) length of service (including 
start date) and types of service utilized; (E) telephone or instrument 
number or other subscriber number or identity, including any temporarily 
assigned network address; and (F) means and source of payment for such 
service (including any credit card or bank account number), of a 
subscriber to or customer of such service when the governmental entity 
uses an administrative subpoena authorized by a Federal or State statute 
or a Federal or State grand jury or trial subpoena or any means 
available under paragraph (1). "

)

This paragraph specifically gives the requirements for disclosure of 
local and long distance telephone connection records, which were plainly 
not met.
