It's somewhat expected. You have three liberal judges and two that are very pro-civil liberties (Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, plus Thomas who wasn't mentioned in that lineup).
Kagan on the dissent side is the only interesting thing for me; I would have liked to hear her thoughts, but she just joined Alito.
This is why the "conservative" vs. "liberal" wing of the court is a bit of a red herring in a lot of cases. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh are both very "liberal" when it comes to individual liberties of people being infringed on by the government.
