And time and time again we hear that this data is used for every tiniest detail of a crime, because it's cheaper than actual policework.

And of course, the police have been caught abusing this data. Data acquired this way is likely to get to you in another type of cases: divorce proceedings often use this sort of data as well, and it's been used in trade disputes too.

Given that all that already happens with cellphone data, what's the point of doing anything about it at this point ?
