DNS records are public, but the access of DNS records is not. Even though the traffic is not encrypted, there is a certain level of anonymity because that lookup traffic usually traverses only between the requestor and the name servers provided by the ISP. It is also highly likely that the EOP IT network is in an enclave of sorts, and that the DNS server provided by the tech company is within that enclave or has a VPN connection of some sort since it's likely that DNS is just one among a suite of services provided.

All this is to say that while the government certainly can subpoena and obtain DNS lookup information from ISPs since there is no reasonable expectation of privacy for information volunteered to a third party, such information is nonetheless protected from disclosure to non-government entities, including private investigators, law firms, and political campaigns.

the contract in place was to scan for nefarious activity and protect against it. there is zero proof of any information being shared or use by private investigators, law firms or political campaigns[/quote]

Well, that's what Durham said happened in the court filing. If we don't trust Durham, that's a different argument. These allegations need to be proven, of course. Personally, I fail to see an alternative explanation as to why this private investigator was in possession of EOP DNS access records and provided it in a meeting with a government agency (CIA?).

They will never be proven, because they are utterly irrelevant to the charged conduct.  They don't appear anywhere in the indictment and have nothing to do with the alleged false statement to Baker.  Durham just slipped them into a filing regarding alleged conflicts of interest that Sussman had already waived.  So he can unaccountably make wild accusations without ever having to present any evidence for them.

In any case, the allegations don't make sense.  The EOP access and records all pertained to the time period when Obama was president.  How would that indicate any kind of spying on Trump?[/quote]Obama didn’t know Trump was running?[/quote]
