SCOTUS said no such thing. Here’s the exact quote ([1] p. 2)
CERTIORARI DENIED
22-190 WIKIMEDIA FOUND. V. NSA/CSS, ET AL.
Nothing else. “Certiorari” is a fancy word for appeal. “Denied” means fewer than four Justices were in favor of a hearing. When this happens (about 99% of the time) Justices don’t need to give a rationale, or report who voted which way. That single line is all we’ll ever know about their decision. Everything else is just speculation.
