I don’t think deploying “80% right” tools for mass surveillance (or anything that can remotely impact human life) counts as lawful in any context.

Just because the US currently lacks a functioning legislative branch doesn’t magically make it OK when gaps in the law are reworded into “national security”

I'm really not sure what you're trying to say or assert, so you can put it more clearly.

The tools are not good enough to be ethically deployed, least of all for surveillance.

Just because Congress is failing to do its job doesn’t mean the executive branch should simply do what it wants under the guise of “national security.”
