  1. as soon as is feasible, if so, congress needs to ban law enforcements ability to buy data without a warrant

  2. There is a reason why private companies are allowed to just hoover up surveillance data on every American, and its precisely for this reason. So the government can get around the legality of breaking the law and denying our constitutional rights.

  3. The only thing that surprises me is the fact they are paying for it. I would have thought they already have all this data.

    What’s neat is that your taxes dollars are paying for it as well. So, data gets hoovered by companies, you get searched without a warrant, and you get to pay for it. The rare, yet beautiful Triple-Fucked!

  5. Couldn’t be more a clear 4th amendment violation. But will any judge uphold the constitution

    We should be more pissed that our purchased devices and apps are collecting all this information about us and selling it.

  7. The whole point of the warrant process is that the government can’t just track whoever they want. Buying the same data from a broker does the exact same thing but with a receipt instead of a judge’s signature.

    Why bother with this in the first place. Like we need a database and tracking for our government and law enforcement. We should be keeping tabs on them. We the people.
    Give me liberty or give me death.

  9. Track this. 

    Fuck Trump. Fuck Kash. And Fuck America. My country is now full of pedophiles.

    Blows my mind so many people gladly share their live location at all times with numerous apps and services! All in the name of “safety”. Sure there are a variety of other ways your location is tracked, but still seems wild to me to just openly share it live without a care.

  11. What’s better than government surveillance?

    Private corporation surveillance sold to the government.

    But hey at least it any China watching your tiktoks

  12. Foreign terrorist cells? 🚫

    Pedophile government? 🚫

    Citizens with opinions? ✅️✅️✅️✅️✅️

  13. Wasn’t it the Republicans that wanted to “drain the swamp” something or another about big brother and trying to control us and our everyday life.

  14. Sweet jeebus. You bought a smart phone.

    It hands off your signal by triangulating cell tower signal strengths.

    You use it to monitor your house, post in Reddit and countless other conveniences provided by apps. Did you really think your data was yours? This data is freely sold/transferred among many “affiliates” pursuant to licensed user agreements. Of course law enforcement can access it. I’m just surprised they pay for it.

    Don’t worry. The FBI only want to break into your house and shoot your dog so they can show you ads. It’s conspiratorial thinking to oppose this. /s
