I'm looking for an article that commented on Obama's comments at south by southwest. Wondering if anyone saved a link.

The article talked about two Obama's, one with his legal hat on and the other with his just-been-briefed-on-terrorists hat on.

The article claimed that All Writs only applies when there is a gap in the law and then listed some other law that showed there was no gap. Seemed compelling to me but I'm not a lawyer so wanted to post it here and see what HN thought.

If someone knows of the article, please post a link. I'll keep looking.

Edit: this is close but not the article I was looking for https://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/blog/2016/02/calea-limits-all-...

Nevermind, here it is:

So what do people make of that article, is it as cut and dried as the law professor says?
