My hunch is that there's no law that makes such a distinction.

Then you didn't read the judge's opinion. The wiretapping statue apparently does make such a distinction.

Judge Koh actually didn't made the distinction, user profiles are also used for spam filtering and she talked about scanning for making user profiles OR targeting ads
