"Stellar Wind" (or "Stellarwind"[citation needed]) was the code name of a warrantless surveillance program begun under the George W. Bush administration's President's Surveillance Program (PSP).[1] The National Security Agency (NSA) program was approved by President Bush shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks and was revealed by Thomas Tamm to The New York Times in 2004.[2][3] Stellar Wind was a prelude to new legal structures that allowed President Bush and President Barack Obama to reproduce each of those programs and expand their reach.[4]
