Scott Budnick (producer of the "Hangover" movies) is embroiled in a complicated feud with an LA homicide cop named Sgt. Richard Biddle; Biddle has pursued his investigation against Budnick by securing an incredibly broad search-warrant to seize his Google data.



The warrant seeks:

1. All of Budnick's account data (email addresses, connected applications and sites, etc)





2. Android info (phone make/model and IMEI, IMSI and phone number)

3. All stored "accounts, email accounts, passwords, PIN codes, account names, user names, screen names, remote data storage accounts, credit card/payment data, contact lists, calendar entries, text messages, voice mail messages, pictures, videos, telephone numbers, mobile devices, physical addresses, historical GPS locations, two-step verification information"

4. All calendars, including shared calendars (and whom they are shared with)





5. All stored contacts





6. "All user documents stored by Google"





7. Any records of securities, funds, etc





8. All Gmail messages, including metadata like read/unread

9. All Google Photo images





10. All stored location data

11. All Play Store purchases and downloads

12. All search history

13. All call records, voicemail messages, SMSes





14. All Google Wallet/Checkout data





It is a spectacularly broad warrant — and also a chilling reminder of how much data Google holds on us.

Eye-opening to see what a search warrant for a Google Account actually covers: all your location data, photos, searches, contacts, emails… https://t.co/m7EWpqUS5Y pic.twitter.com/5vtUDV6AlT — Aaron Mendelson (@a_mendelson) December 16, 2019
