"How can Bob and Marie say that AT&T's records about them are "their . . . papers, and effects . . ." when they didn't record that information, they aren't storing that information, and they don't even have access to that information?"
I agree with you on this, but I don't agree that means it is no longer protected by the 4th Amendment. That information is AT&T's "papers and effects", so collecting it without a warrant is a violation of AT&T's 4th Amendment rights, not necessarily Bob and Marie's.
