“Once again, Justice Thomas’ dissenting opinion is clear and to the point...”
Oh, I agree with Thomas that the records belong to the phone companies. But when he correctly establishes who owns those records he failed to require that law enforcement obtain a warrant before seizing the private property and records of the phone companies.
A warrant is still required because the rights of the phone companies are not diminished simply because they are a company.
The phone companies are willing to give them that information though, if the police were taking it without them wanting to they would have been on the front lines of this debate.
