@dametzger @emptywheel And if this is true, why isn't this issue the center piece of the Snowden-revelations?
@electrospaces NSA correlates IDs on these metadata matches which is how they decide where to attack someone. @dametzger

@emptywheel Yes, but with regard to the section 215 domestic metadata that would be a job for FBI isn't it?@dametzger -
@electrospaces This is not necessarily controversial use (like getting burners for drug dealers). But NSA is hiding extent of it@dametzger -
@emptywheel well, yes, because if it is like you said, then they would be too much operating domestically@dametzger -
@electrospaces ?? Not clear what you mean.@dametzger -
@emptywheel 215 is domestic metadata, and for a foreign intel agency as NSA only very limited use of that would be acceptable@dametzger -
@electrospaces That's problem. This data used to surveil & prosecute brown people for crimes white ppl would not be surveilled 4@dametzger -
@emptywheel NSA doesn't prosecute anyone, I assume you are now talking about FBI again?@dametzger -
@electrospaces The hand off between NSA and FBI is very much a black box (tho more keeps moving to FBI bc easier sharing rules)@dametzger
