So was this approved by a FISA court or not? Was a warrant lawfully obtained?

A warrant was "lawfully obtained" for PRISM. The big deal here is not the lack of warrants. It's that apparently all you need to do to get a warrant written out is to be a politically-connected Muslim and some nutjob in the FBI will replace "Mohammed Raghead" with your name on a form affidavit swearing you are three degrees from UBL. And there is no adversarial process to challenge this, it is kept secret forever, and if you're ever arrested on the basis of a shitty FISA warrant, good luck challenging the PC, because they ain't even give that mess to you even if you specifically hire a defense lawyer with TS/SCI clearance.

That's why they painstakingly go through the bios of every person and whenever there is something in there that someone might say "but what about this," they knock it down. Maybe read the story?

No. You really could have kept it to a simple yes.

ETA: For the record, I can't access the link from work. If it's a site that routinely posts "leaks" it would be blocked.
