  3. 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

  23. #SCOTUS Reviews Police Use of #Cell #Location #Data to Find Criminals

    #Geofence searches allow law enforcement to find suspects & witnesses by sweeping up #LocationData from cellphone users near crime scenes.

    Geofence searches have become increasingly popular as a tool for law enforcement, but critics say they put at risk the personal data of everyday Americans & violate the #Constitution.
