@onekade But they did not have FISA warrants on him, and I can't imagine an XKS query that would have captured him (unless focus on Russian)

@emptywheel they don't need warrants or FISA orders to find something sketchy via upstream. They either didn't find it or [something bad] -
@onekade They need 702. Which, PCLOB assures us, is not search term. Or they need XKS queries. And there, I think they're dumb abt Russia. -
@emptywheel why do they need 702? That's not how they run taps on cables and process the Internet through NARUS systems! That's 12333, no? -
@onekade Not coming into this country. Coming into this country is 702. So search on codes, not search terms. But still, surely gets Inspire -
@emptywheel@onekade so they do XKS scores on [ ] people/year, but not on people on terrorists list whom other countries have warned about? -
@occbaystreet They can't do XKS on US persons w/o a FISA order. They can do XKS on stuff like "chechen bomb threat"@onekade -
@emptywheel@onekade easier 2 collect on +basic/triggered searches on everyone than sp. searches on ppl reasonably supsected of terrorism? -
@occbaystreet Where they do collect on everyone they have rules about querying, but those are looser overseas.@onekade - 8 more replies
