That's also about US companies that can't refuse or can't bother to challenge that a dragnet is set up in their process.
ISPs themselves didn't save any data.
However, they gave interception rooms to the NSA (which is indeed technically not them).
Nowadays ISPs aren't the right scale to do it for the reasons you mentioned. But the USA lowkey moved the dragnet to the main datacenters with prism, then made it mandatory for all with the CLOUD act.
And if the threat is not coming from the USA, but some other country starts to ask Discord to BCC them the IDs of their citizens, we can do the odds on whether Discord will challenge it or not.
Now I want to ask Discord who is their third party provider ? Why don't they process IDs themselves ?
