I'm guessing that large sellers of filters have been ordered to report unusually large sales.

Listen to the entire video. The sellers do not have to do anything:

1) He went to eBay to look at Oil Filter Suppressors
2) He googled YouTube videos of Oil Filter Suppressors.
3) Then he bought a large quantity of Oil Filters.

Think "Big Data" aka Data Lake. All this information from search engines and various social media sites and online retailers is flowing into a "Data Lake". Someone in .gov (BATF?) is sitting on top of a giant search engine looking for all of the people who did multiple online searches for "Oil Filter Suppressors" and then purchased multiple Oil Filters.

Big Data and your tax dollars at work. Everyone is worried about FFL Bound Books with 4473's. No worries. They don't need the 4473's for gun confiscations. They can use the same technology to harvest data off the 'net to know what addresses they need to show up at. As well as which ones they will need reinforcements...
