I'd have to double check but I don't think that PPD-28 rule is limited to comms content?

First of all, not only one who "collected" that 500M person database is Belan, not RU G.

But if you collect in bulk for any of permitted purposes, you collect in bulk on everyone.

How many of those targets do you think US couldn't invent an espionage, cyber, or intl crime purpose for?
