@emptywheel If FG is Foreign Government, couldn't it be that those country certs are approvals for monitoring the govts of those countries?3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@electrospaces Pretty sure we've got abundant evidence they're monitoring agents of foreign power as broadly defined.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@electrospaces Yes, but slides, at least, claim it involves 702. But that may be telecom (AT&T/Verizon) assistance out of US.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel But isn't the difference between FISA and FAA that latter is just more efficient? (annual list vs individual approval)2 replies 1 retweet 0 likes -

@electrospaces Right. But Q still why they'd need it if US telecoms assisted out of country, right?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel hm couldn't it be because PRISM collection (agents using Gmail etc) is only possible under FAA?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@electrospaces Unless you're stealing it overseas, you mean? But one wouldn't need BOTH a CT cert and a FG one, right?2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Not all PRISM providers are also tapped overseas ;-) Hm depends on the justification for a particular search I think1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@electrospaces Right. Clearly FG taps are legal under FAA, but not included under known certs. Not sure why, but may be special needs anal.
