I didn't agree to shit. If I did agree it was probably because some company twisted my arm and didn't offer a more respectable service that doesn't gobble up every bit of data to resell possible. Probably through every mobile carrier.
My understanding is that individual cell location data is actually protected by some court case, that's why the pigs love big tech... they don't need a warrant, they got a guy on the inside processing their request based on "trust me bro, daddy sam needs this data"
They don't need a warrant because rules are for those of us who are ruled.
