NSLs don't involve data feeds. The All Writs Act involves a judicial review and issuing of a judicial subpoena. A judicial subpoena may well involve ongoing data collection. NSLs are administrative subpoenas which aren't reviewed by the judiciary before being issued and limited in scope because of that. Actions taken "via All Writs Act" are not to enable NSLs.
