The judge went so far as to grant an injunction against the NSA. Sadly, he stayed the injunction pending appeal.

Used the word "Orwellian".

Finally an opinion the administration will have to pay attention to.

From what I heard today, the ruling only applies to two individuals. I could be wrong.

One judge makes a ruling that is not consistent with a 35 year old Supreme Court decision.

Don't get your hopes up.

Are you kidding? When has the administration followed any opinion that didn't support their policies?
