Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals Decision in US v. Chatrie
Charie appealed the district court's denial of his motion to suppress location information from a geofence warrant. This decision affirms the district court's decision. They do not find a privacy interest in location information or that obtaining 2 hours of Chatrie's data consituted a search due to user's ability to opt-out of Location History. Note the robust dissent that begins on page 36, which applies the Fourth Amendment to modern technology and highlights the likelihood that geofence warrants capture the movements of individuals in private spaces.
