MODERATORS
I'm less worried about this scenario: "We are investigating one specific person whom we have probable cause to believe committed a specific crime. Oh look, he has a Gmail account. Let's subpoena his video searches with a valid warrant."
I'm extremely troubled by this scenario: "We don't like people who search for videos on guns/surfing/cats/whatever. Let's subpoena a list of those people and start investigating them on no other basis."
"We don't like people who search for videos on civil rights/racial equality/social justice/anarchism/communism/anti-capitalism/fbi overreach. Let's subpoena a list of those people and start investigating them on no other basis."
