    That’s also true. Wiretapping internet communications was more valuable pre-2010s when things weren’t encrypted. It is good that things are encrypted now. There’s still some metadata that can be pulled now from ISPs, such as IP addresses, SNI, and unencrypted DNS, but cops are better off subpoenaing Facebook and Google than trying to wiretap.
