Marshall has access, misuses it to get data and signs it as a legal request … gets arrested and charged

I’ve been contemplating how to put this in to the blog and podcast, as we start a new series I think is appropriate sometimes.

U.S. marshal used controversial cell phone location service to illegally access data, DOJ says is an article by Cyberscoop that talks about a United States Marshall who used access to cell phone data which he signed as being part of either an investigation or something that he supposedly made up so he could get the data.

The company involved said that they have security in mind, and there should be good faith within law enforcement to use the data responsibly. The system used has been discontinued for years, and it isn’t coming back.

To read more, look at the article, maybe you will agree this marshall will be our “asshole of the podcast?”

We’ll have nore soon.
