It is statutorily unlawful for NSA and foreign-facing intelligence agencies to target Americans for spying except for in certain specific conditions. This law has long been ignored, but it is on the books.
It’s orthogonal. Whether legal or not you know they have the data.
I think most people were glad authorities were using flock and cell tower data to backtrack and arrest folks involved in the Jan riots. They didn’t push back then cuz they didn’t have the vision to see that it would just grow bigger and get used more commonly almost quotidian. And it will by this admin and by the opposing admins. They all love having data at their disposal. Heck, Congress did nothing about being spied on by our intelligence services.
