Mystery: How did DHS get records of a #Google VOIP call using a #DEA database of telco records? https://www.emptywheel.net/2015/04/16/the-government-changed-its-mind-about-how-many-databases-it-had-searched-after-it-shut-down-the-dea-dragnet/ … via @emptywheel
@WilliamOckhamTx and the notion that these are discrete "databases" plays into that, no? @PatrickCToomey @csoghoian

@emptywheel They are playing Go Fish, but they have already seen your cards. Easy to know what to ask for.@PatrickCToomey@csoghoian -
@WilliamOckhamTx You're saying there aren't distinct interfaces or that they clean up on parallel construction?@PatrickCToomey@csoghoian

@emptywheel Yeah, the DHS guy clearly knew exactly what he was looking for AND where to find it. So all of his stories are true, in part. -
@WilliamOckhamTx So he had looked at *what* at first? And did it include content? -
@emptywheel The panopticon. They capture all the packets (including content) for natsec, but in court they launder it. -
@emptywheel No other explanation covers the stuff you find, Snowden docs, and early post-9/11 leaks.
