  1. 'Tower Dump' #Warrants Ruled #Unconstitutional

    The Hill: A federal judge in #Mississippi ruled Wednesday that "tower dump" warrants are unconstitutional, declining to reverse a lower court decision refusing the government's request to obtain the search warrants in a series of violent crime investigations. A "tower dump" involves #cellphone companies providing law enforcement with access to the time and location data of all mobile devices connected to specific cell towers during a designated time window.

  3. Privacy isn't a political issue. It's a human one. Your 4th Amendment right is being infringed upon. The ever growing surveillance state is watching you. You don't know where. You don't know for how long. And you were never asked.

    DeFlock NM is a grassroots campaign to end warrantless license plate surveillance in our state. No retention limits. No audits. No accountability. We're changing that. Join our cause.

  5. “Police can also use the [flock] cameras to surveil protestors and stalk ex-lovers-or strangers they find attractive.

    The cameras have raised questions on constitutionality and have led to wrongful arrests across the county.”

  7. 10,000s of state-authorized Flock cameras are surveilling citizens without a warrant.

    Please tell me this 4A violation is being challenged in the courts.

  9. 🧭 The US Supreme Court ruled that using geofence warrants to obtain people’s historical location data from companies is a Fourth Amendment “search.” While geofence warrants weren’t struck down outright, police must meet standard warrant requirements. #SupremeCourt #Privacy #4thAmendment 🔎 Read: cyberinsider.com/us-supreme-co

  13. This is a privacy victory. It deserves to be celebrated. The Supreme Court ruled that geofence warrants violate the Fourth Amendment, 6–3.

    scotusblog.com/2026/06/court-r

    However, there’s a hidden detail that is worth flagging. And it’s not good.

    This ruling arose from Chatrie v United States. Google gave generic cell phone records to the cops. No specificity means unconstitutional. Maybe.

    The federal judge on the case agreed that it was unconstitutional. But she allowed evidence from the violation to be used anyway. Why? She cited that “even if there had been a violation of the Fourth Amendment, law enforcement officials had acted in good faith.”

    In. Good. Faith.

    This translates to “cops can violate the constitution if we believe their intentions are good.”

    How many cops do you know who act in good faith?

  15. Houston! We still have a 4th Amendment!

    The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that “an individual has a reasonable expectation of privacy in his cell-phone location information.”

    Simply stated the ruling makes clear - the 4th Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures and effectively protects privacy rights, APPLIES to LOCATION DATA collected from from cellphones.

    Authorities need to obtain a search warrant when asking tech companies for the location data of their users, including when requesting historical geofence location data.

    NOTE: some service providers (Google) store users’ location data locally on their devices prompting investigators to go to the users themselves to access this data. techcrunch.com/2026/06/29/in-m #SCOTUS #GeoFencing #GeoFenceData #Mobility #MobilePhones #Privacy #Search&Seizure #Warrant #LocationData #4thAmendment #Constitution #PrivacyRights #DataPrivacy #SearchWarrant #LawEnforcement

  17. SCOTUS ruled that law enforcement "looking to obtain sweeping data on cellphone users in the vicinity of a crime scene must have a warrant."

    "...broad 'geofence' surveillance equals a search" under the Constitution's Fourth Amendment, "which protects people against unreasonable searches and seizures."

    The #Trump admin had argued that police "didn't need a warrant for the information at all..."

  19. In major #privacy win, #SupremeCourt rules #geofence #warrants are protected by privacy rights
    In the 6-3 ruling, #SCOTUS said that “an individual has a reasonable expectation of privacy in his cell-phone #location information.” According to the court, that means people have privacy rights when it comes to the location history collected by their phones, as well as the services and apps running on them. #4thAmendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures.

  21. Is SignalTrace violating your 4th amendment rights by searching your car?

    License plate readers (suck) operate using data clearly seen outside of your car. This tech amounts to searching the contents of your vehicle and even your pockets if that's where you keep your phone. This will not only tell them who is in the car, it will also tell who [and when] you are traveling with.

    Am I crazy for keeping my phone in a faraday bag?
