Judging from the stuff in the Afghanistan Papers link posted in a thread here the other day, there's already a huge group of major US(?) companies freely sharing intel with US intelligence agencies—the implication, in context, was that they'd either opened up access to some portion of their data on users/citizens for intel agencies to dig through whenever they want, or that they're actively looking for certain kinds of info then passing that along, not just that they respond to warrants—and that's considered common-enough knowledge that its existence wasn't redacted. Dunno who's included but I doubt none of the big tech companies are.
- thejynxed 6y agoYeah, because to get around pesky things like needing warrants signed by a judge they simply sign contracts with these companies who provide them with tons of info for a hefty fee. See: The C.I.A. and their fat ten year contract with WaPo.
