It's not just public posts, private messaging apps are also scrutinized.

The AI system searches public posts, it's not able to read DMs, it doesn't have login credentials.

Though they do reserve the ability to seize, crack and search your phone within the Constitution Free Zone (one hundred miles of any US border) and will then search all your internet activity for wrongdoing. Dunno if that is treated with AI searching.
