Dave_r,

If I read it right: the government is paying for commercial (phone) location data. There are 3 issues:

  • creepy: the government shouldn’t have this
  • costly: they are buying it with our tax dollars
  • comprehensive (?): They are getting everything (money can buy)?

If the government were to require this (like via a search warrant) rather than pay for it it would go through a mountain of legal oversight. It seems like the interpretation is: commercially available = publically available.

I guess what I would want to know next is: who gets access to this?
