    This is a classic who watches the watch man situation alot of these data collection tools surely collect a lot but have issues massive sorting relevant data, there's a lot of porkies that think the nsa system is perfect because they used the buzz word ai or neural networks.

    Edit: another issue since the early war on terror and even before is agency's not sharing data and it has only gotten worse, the nsa won't share with the fbi or the cia if they feel it might make them look bad, ect. This is also true in reverse with other agency's because they want the credit.

      agency’s not sharing data

      why don't they?

      I feel like they might loosen up on those restrictions if there was actually any kind of leftist movement to thwart...

        It's inter department conflict ie work politics, agencies all want to be the star child like the cia but they have get funding depending on how politicians feel about there performance, also in a major way the cia has gone rogue in the sense it doesn't listen to Washington, why? because it doesn't have to it can generate any amount of money on drugs so funding is never and issue they can just murder anyone even in Washington so they cant be challenged. Ask jfk. The other 3 letter agency's cant do what the cia can so they play politics to get funding, working together doesn't get them more money individually that change didn't happen until the late 70's.
