The front page of today's Wash Post quotes House Majority Leader Dick Armey as saying that there is no doubt Carnivore is illegal under current wiretapping laws. The House Judiciary Comm. will hold hearings on Carnivore and Omnivore on Monday

The online version of the Post also reports that the FBI has also allowed reporters a look-see at Carnivore. Not much detail, however.
