IANAL but I research this stuff quite a bit.
Doxxing of federal employees' personal information in certain circumstances is technically illegal (but many people think it isn't): https://www.robertreeveslaw.com/blog/doxing-arrested/ https://www.robertreeveslaw.com/blog/doxing-arrested/
But publishing location information of where authorities happen to be in public at a certain time... I don't think is actually illegal. The Apple app author also believes he is 100% legal and is seeking to go to court over this.

- ranger_danger 1y agoAnother point I forgot to make (can't edit anymore)... It could possibly be found that the government illegally pressured or "coerced" a company like Apple/Google to remove "speech" (an app) they didn't want. https://robertslaw.org/1st-amendment-protection-against-using-3rd-party-to-silence-or-punish/ https://robertslaw.org/1st-amendment-protection-against-usin...
