      @onekade Highly doubt that's 12333. First they likely did was send a GJ subpoena to Tam's ISP to get all searches.

      @emptywheel no no you're missing my point. I'm saying they Hoover up the Internet and can't identify a suspected terrorist searching this

      @onekade No way Watkins would have asked unless he knew the answer, and they CAN get those searches very very easily from ISP.

      @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

          @occbaystreet Where they do collect on everyone they have rules about querying, but those are looser overseas. @onekade

          @emptywheel @onekade tyvm. Do we know for certain that "remote car control" is the only relevant search term? Or only going on court today?
