They say Critics of section 215 deliberately ignore the fact that any request for items under the section requires judicial approval. An FBI agent cannot simply walk into a flight school or library and demand records.

It requires a judicial rubber-stamp you mean. That’s just one more hoop. I don’t think the judicial area has *ever* refused a request. What’s that other than asking your supervisor if you can?
Ya know, it doesn’t matter if they have gotten refused – if they were smart, they would do that – toss a bunch of useless ones at their judicial system, then say, ‘look over 1/4 of our requests are turned down!!’. What matters is whether the public gets to review it.
