“Historically, metadata has had less privacy protection under the law in some countries—including the U.S.—than the contents of communications. The police in many countries can obtain the records of who you called last month more easily than they can arrange a wiretap of your phone line to hear what you’re actually saying.

  • The length of your conversations

  • The time frame in which a conversation took place

  • Your location when communicating (as well as with whom)
