They've been doing this for years

The phone companies eventually mandated charging the government for this data, after which much tracking dropped off.
The thing to do if you ever go someplace you don't want known, is either remove the battery from the phone or don't take the phone with you at all.
If the government thinks they're going to get anything salacious from my phone, I want to wish them luck.
