The fact that you think they get warrants to collect data into that database is cute.
They probably have like one warrant that's basically just a blank check to spy on anyone.
Which continue to expand, and just expanded even more this last time under Biden unfortunately.
They don't need one because of third party doctrine. They can just ask your phone carrier for your location and useage data and Google for your browser history. Those companies are free to sell that information to the government, which they do.
But they have to publicly disclose that information if they sell it, under a FISA warrant there's already a gag order on it.
The public disclosure is in the EULA, which nobody reads.
