The Carpenter Case: Watching the argument at the Supreme Court

I had the opportunity to go to the Supreme Court to watch the oral arguments in a case called United States v. Carpenter. Carpenter deals with what standard law enforcement must meet to obtain cell site location information from a wireless carrier, which fundamentally is about the appropriate balance between privacy and security. This is an issue of great interest to Verizon.  Verizon joined an amicus brief in the case this summer, and we will host an event in Washington, DC to discuss it in more detail in the new year.
