> using a database with records of most Americans in it. How did you make up this "records of most Americans in it" claim? How would communications between targeted non-citizens outside the US with other non-citizens outside the US contain records of most Americans? To understand the article you posted, you have to understand the terms in it first. Since I'm being rate-limited, some responses to the comment below (if you want me to reply normally, send a few upvotes to reset the rate limiter): > The NSA believes it only has to be accurate "51%" of the time, with no court oversight that they're hitting that goal. No, it doesn't. Where does that claim come from? >The court above had found out that the FBI routinely didn't follow it Follow what? You're confusing 702 collection, which requires showing that the target is a non-citizen outside the US communicating with the same, with querying of that non-American data for American identifiers, which merely requires sufficient documentation for oversight. You very clearly don't understand the article you posted.

The NSA believes it only has to be accurate "51%" of the time, with no court oversight that they're hitting that goal. The court above had found out that the FBI routinely didn't follow it, to the point of an unconstitutional view of the program as a whole. They weren't following the rules you're laying out.
