So what happens is it's designed in a way, and I feel comfortable in here. I wouldn't have this quite the same conversation with kids because I don't want to give them ideas, but Snapchat was designed for this purpose because what it does is you send a message to someone, and then after they read it, guess what happens to that message? It's gone. It is gone. And the way that they save their data means it's gone from them as well. And so you cannot, no matter how wonderfully written your search warrant is, there is no data to get. (16:18–16:32)

CLAIM
