You know, we could just let the feds watch all the transactions themselves and save ourselves the time and paperwork. Not a search, right?

Instead of making up hypotheticals that have NOTHING to do with the law that was enacted....how about addressing the law as it is? Any comments on that?
Not bogeymen what ifs....just what is in the law.

You asked how it was a search. I explained and added an analogy to clarify my stance. My questions were not rhetorical, btw. When the government demands that I give them information about what I'm doing, whether I'm at home or at my place of business, and whether the information is provided via paper, video, or remote camera, I consider it to be a search.
