That's not a FAA 702 order though. In fact it's in a different category to all the 70* orders, which fall under the "electronic survellance and/or physical searches" category in the https://www.fas.org/irp/agency/doj/fisa/2012rept.pdf annual report. The Verizon order would be a FAA 501 order, though people only ever seem to refer to it as a 50 USC ยง 1861 order. They're the "Applications for Access to Certain Business Records (Including the Production of Tangible Things)" on the annual report. These orders seem to be intended for things like the Verizon metadata, which it seems (IANAL) are considered to be unprotected by the probable-cause requirement even for USPERS. So I presume a 501 order couldn't be used to grab users' full private data from Google. In any case Google has denied that it has ever complied with http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2013/06/google-uses-secure-... (or even been served http://googleblog.blogspot.ie/2013/06/what.html ) any order nearly as broad as the Verizon one, and Facebook and MS have more or less followed suit.
