Can the police search through your mail? https://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/can-the-police-open-your-mail.html https://www.legalmatch.com/law-library/article/can-the-polic... The answer is yes, with a search warrant. Therefore, I see no reason that a phone should be treated differently.

There were several formats developed for recording video on optical discs before the DVD. Optical recording technology was invented by David Paul Gregg and James Russell in 1958 and first patented in 1961. A consumer optical disc data format known as LaserDisc was developed in the United States, and first came to market in Atlanta, Georgia in 1978. It used much larger discs than the later formats. Due to the high cost of players and discs, consumer adoption of LaserDisc was very low in both North America and Europe, and was not widely used anywhere outside Japan and the more affluent areas of Southeast Asia, such as Hong-Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan.

Do people normally mail their pictures to themselves? Mail is typically limited to sender -> receiver. The closest analogue to me would be a diary and unfortunately not so clear-cut: https://blogs.findlaw.com/law_and_life/2017/06/legally-is-my-diary-or-personal-journal-confidential.html https://blogs.findlaw.com/law_and_life/2017/06/legally-is-my...

This comparison is ridiculous, the amount of private information you can gather from my mail is incomparable to the amount of information you can gather from my phone. My phone remembers more about me than I do. Conversations I don't recall having, places I don't recall going to. Open up your Google timeline and scroll through it, you'll see plenty of things that make you go "Huh I wonder what I was doing that day."
