And guess what will affect people's decision making process? Geez, I could do this for political reasons, but I might wind up in prison for 10 years. I wouldn't do it. So now listen, There's 56 reforms that are written into FISA and those are in there. Jim can go to jail for 10 years, get a $10,000 fine. Right. But it's not retroactive. You know, you can't write a law today and then hold someone accountable for law. That's right. Today, that, that is constitutional. (17:32–17:41)
