    #SecretService agents tailed #JamesComey’s car from North Carolina to Virginia. The “# 3 guy at DOJ ‘wanted to ping’” Comey’s phone without a traditional #warrant, according to the filing, a request that’s typically used only when an emergency — a dangerous, fleeing suspect, for instance — requires immediate action.

  2. 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

    The same logic already applied to a cellphone’s #tracking , and the high court found “no good reason exists to reach a different result for Location History” collected by third parties like #Google.

    Split 6-3, the majority agreed that the government needs a #warrant and must show reasonable cause to turn a phone's location-tracking services into a government #surveillance tool.

  9. Rodrick Johnson, 67, is one of many residents who were detained by federal agents during the raid. A #US #citizen, he said agents broke through his door & dragged him out in zip ties.

    Johnson said he was left #TiedUp outside the building for nearly 3 hours before agents finally let him go.

    “I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, & they said I had to wait until they looked me up. I asked if they had a #warrant, & I asked for a #lawyer. They never brought one.”
