>It's easy to say that the money in my bank is my property, even where it is in the care and custody of a third party, so by that argument, Gorsuch's property argument gives me more privacy protections for non-warranted searches to my banking data I didn't understand him to be quite saying that. I understood him to be saying, "information about oneself is property. The government may not take your property without cause even someone else is holding it for you. Ergo, they cannot take the information here." As you note--there's a debate that would need to be had whether this is your information that you've given them, or their information that they've created about you and the analogy breaks down a bit for me where that isn't perfectly clear. Roberts seemed during oral arguments like he might have been trying on the information-is-property argument, "This [data] is not simply created by the company, though. It's a joint venture with the individual carrying the phone. That person helps the company create the record by being there and sending out the pings or whatever." That he writes against it here suggests he either didn't like where it led, or possibly couldn't get a majority to sign on to an approach that would uproot Katz when neither party was asking for it.
