Which country are you talking about? The laws differ between what law enforcement can and can't do.

  The same one that's in the topic - the US. https://johnfbakerlaw.com/the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-of-geofencing/ https://johnfbakerlaw.com/the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-of-g...

    Then I can't comment on this. I don't live in the US nor know what it is like. I was responding to this from an 'EU' perspective. For the tech companies who do bussiness globally, my objection still stands. In the country I'm living in, the data collected to determine whether someone is pregnant or had an abortion, is data collected beyond what they should be collecting to provide their service. I have no idea why a company who provides: email, vpn, search, etc... should be able to figure out users health data.

      They probably shouldn't have access to any personal information in an ideal world. But they gather as much info as possible to sell advertising and pay for the service. At least here in the US there have been well know cases where someone starts receiving pregnancy related ads before they even know they're pregnant, just based on other data/activities that are correlated to becoming pregnant.
