"Google handed over a trove of personal data about a student and journalist to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in response to a subpoena that had not been approved by a judge.
The search giant provided ICE with the usernames, physical addresses, and an itemized list of services associated with the Google account of Amandla Thomas-Johnson, a British student and journalist who attended a pro-Palestinian protest in 2024.
Google also turned over Thomas-Johnson’s IP addresses, phone numbers, subscriber numbers and identities, and credit card and bank account numbers linked to his account."

@jalefkowit Just a reminder that Gemini wants to have access to all your personal data. Including your encrypted messages to help you with your everyday chores….

@jalefkowit If a company can share so much data without a judge’s approval, what does that mean for user trust?
Privacy shouldn’t depend on who asks for the data. -

@jalefkowit ICE and Google to of my least favorite entities.
I adore them as much as Microsoft, proprietary (antifeature) software
Which is to say they are all a cancer.
I hate Microsoft ie... so you get the idea.

afaik:
The real legal problem in the US is the so-called Third-Party Doctrine. Put simply, it states that if you voluntarily give your data to a third party (Google, apple, MS, Disney, Netflix, bank, phone company or any else), you no longer have a "reasonable right to privacy" from the state. Therefore, the government often doesn't need a court order for this data.
