@Krhawkins5 @normative Also it's a blow to have Congress explicitly permit mass spying for the first time.

@manish_vij But it's kind of wrong Q bc it accepts IC definition of bulk, which is not normal English def.@normative@Krhawkins51 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@manish_vij And again, that's all IC's definition of bulk, not ordinary human definition.@Krhawkins51 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel So you think, eg, "account" can be defined as Vzn despite the specific exclusion of electronic providers?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@manish_vij No. Again, the bill DOES prohibit IC-definition bulk collection on Verizon, but not (explicitly) on Western Union.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Agree it doesn't address other data types. But relief it doesn't proactively authorize bulk. Will all come down to SC.3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
