What a weird way to think about such events.

Such subpoenas are clandestine surveillance of citizens by their state. The problem with such types of surveillance in particular is the lack of accountability.

How does the ethical use of this prolematic tool get ascertained? Where and how is the democratic oversight implemented? How is misuse treated and prevented?
