Nicholas Merrill, an internet service provider who received an FBI National Security Letter (NSL) asking for information about a client which he refused, speaks of his experiences over nearly 9 years in which he was forbidden to tell anyone, including his family; how he resisted in the courts helped by the ACLU and the NYCLU; how his case led a judge to declare NSLs unconstitutional and Congress to amend the Patriot Act so NSL recipients can seek legal relief, yet how the Justice Dept. is still accumulating personal information on hundreds of thousands of American citizens.
