Unless the Bureau uses some new loophole from the Patriot Act, they are only allowed access to logs pertinent to a specific time period. That is, the time in which the alleged offensed occured. Its actually up to a Federal Judge to determine how much info can be collected as part of the subpoena. I think 18 USC 2703 covers all this stuff.
