However, as authorized by the USA FREEDOM Act, technical personnel will have access to the historical metadata for an additional three months.

Anyone who trusts these bassturds is beyond stupid, they're willfully ignorant and belong in a Commie paradise where the State is All Powerful and Beneficent.
