[1]Summary: The Supreme Court Rules in Carpenter v. United States: On Friday, June 22, the Supreme Court issued its much-anticipated opinion in Carpenter v. United States, holding that a warrant is required for police to access cell site location information from a cell phone company-the detailed geolocation information generated by a cellphone's communication with cell towers. As [2]predicted, Chief Justice Roberts authored the majority opinion, reversing the Sixth Circuit's [3]decision. He was joined by Justices Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor and Kagan. The remaining four justices, Justices Kennedy, Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch each filed separate dissenting opinions. (Via [4]Lawfare - Hard National Security Choices) There has been a ton of coverage about this in the US. As per usual, Lawfare does a great job of reviewing this without hyperbole. Give it a good read as it has far reaching potential implications.
