believe it or not there's more countries in the world than the United States
> "The third-party doctrine is a United States legal doctrine that holds that people who voluntarily give information to third parties—such as banks, phone companies, internet service providers (ISPs), and e-mail servers—have "no reasonable expectation of privacy."

There are always laws that don't follow it, such as the CCPA in California or several (narrower) approaches in other states, or even cases such as Carpenter v. US that rejected a possible application of it. This is without even considering more obvious holes in this concept including IP law, healthcare data, etc.
