I don't think the analogy holds for two reasons (which cut in opposite directions from the perspective of fourth amendment jurisprudence, fwiw). First, the dragnet surveillance that Google performs is very different from the targeted s

The establishments are owned by a corporate person named "Uno Restaurant Holdings Corporation". So calling it Uno's isn't inconsistent with how we talk about Walmart's stores or Google's website, for example.

This paper is important to read. The tone of the introduction is a bit preachy and the findings as stated are underwhelming and beyond obvious [1]. But when reading this type of papers -- and academic literature in general -- don't c
