'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.

"That is an unreasonable search under the #FourthAmendment," judge concluded
The order repeatedly referenced the Supreme Court's recent decision in Chatrie v United States, in which the majority held that #geofence #warrants require constitutional #privacy protections

“Karim Khan and the Targeted Assassination of the ICC”

“In May of last year, an Israeli-British defense lawyer linked to a #Netanyahu adviser, named Nicholas Kaufman, had informed the then ICC prosecutor Karim Khan that Israel was willing to put a deal on the table for him.

In exchange for the prosecutor withdrawing his arrest #warrants against Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav #Gallant, the proposal was allowing him and the court itself to survive.

Khan was made clear that in the event that he did not bow to Tel Aviv’s demands, he would be ‘destroyed’.”

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.

#SupremeCourt ruling guts government’s use of #geofence #warrants

The #FourthAmendment protects a user’s “location history,” the Supreme Court ruled Monday.

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.

#US #SupremeCourt appears split over controversial use of '#geofence' search #warrants
The case, Chatrie v. United States, centers on the government’s controversial use of so-called “geofence” #searchwarrants. #Lawenforcement and federal agents use these warrants to compel tech companies, like Google, to turn over information about which of its billions of users were in a certain place and time based on their #phone’s location.
