Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    In which emptywheel reminds, again, that the standards for accessing govt emails in case of insider threat concerns are REALLY LOW. People playing in SCIFs don't get much privacy when suspected of leaking/working w/foreign spies.

        You may not like that fact -- I have problems with it!!! -- but those rules would be applied to Trump's transition officials just like they would to CIA or DOJ employees.

        Until MAR I used gov't e-mail systems since e-mail started. Never any questions my doing so constituted consent to monitoring.

        Andrew Long Retweeted Renato Mariotti

        Would you agree with Renato that this would’ve required a warrant, meaning a judge agreed there was good reason to believe a crime was committed, and that evidence was in these emails? And would that warrant have covered the entire archive of emails?https://twitter.com/renato_mariotti/status/942179377592315904 …

        Andrew Long added,

        12/ One important issue I should note is that typically prosecutors cannot obtain emails from a third party without using a search warrant, not a subpoena.
