@emptywheel well, later she says "metadata searches also went up", which is what the link was referring to -
@ErrataRob FBI, on the other hand, dumps all FISA data (which is redundant, as all data is) in together, PLUS makes separate metadata DBs. -
@emptywheel@ErrataRob For example, it could be [Yemini] AND [American] OR [Pakistani] as a term and count. That’s a legal query. -
@flyryan No. These searches specifically USE USP identifiers. Like "Has FLYRYAN talked to anyone we targeted under 702"?@ErrataRob -
@emptywheel@ErrataRob yes I know. Sorry for not being clear. I substituted nationalities for clarity. I guess it backfired.
