"The report says America’s national security agencies sought 534,396,285 call detail records in calendar 2017"

Seems to me they're drowning themselves in data. It is just not possible that their search criteria is sufficiently precise to yield actionable data.

Good.They'll be spending valuable tax dollars searching for eff all, while actual innocent people will suffer no consequences.

Hey, if you can't beat 'em, you can drown 'em in irrelevant data.
