Precisely. Can rayiner obtain my call metadata? They cannot. I did not broadcast this information, the NSA obtained it by using state powers to secure a secret, unrestricted (in the most literal sense) warrant.
- wwweston 13y ago> Can rayiner obtain my call metadata? They cannot. That's what we suppose, anyway. Of course, we don't know whether or not rayiner has acquaintances who work for your carrier who have access to it, or perhaps law enforcement who have access to a portal that the carrier voluntarily provides. And we don't know if the carrier has freely entered into any private agreements to sell call data to others... which they might be free to do even in the face of aggressive bans on law enforcement or national security organizations ever even breathing at carriers.
- rayiner 13y agoThe 4th amendment protects your personal information, not just information that isn't public. That's a big difference. I might not be able to obtain your call metadata, but hundreds of people at Verizon have access to it. Indeed, its not even you data. They generated it. Do you ever think the framers contemplated you being able to invoke the 4th to protect other people's letters about you?
