Supreme Court Hears Arguments on Geofencing Warrants and Fourth Amendment Privacy

The Supreme Court heard arguments on whether geofencing warrants—allowing police to demand Google identify all users within a crime scene area—are constitutional. The case stems from a 2019 Virginia bank robbery where police obtained a warrant for location data on roughly three football fields around the bank, ultimately identifying Okello Chatrie. The government argues users who opted into Google's location history waived privacy expectations, while defense contends this amounts to a dragnet search violating the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches.
