How would this affect law enforcements ability to use data they bought from telcos?



IANAL, but the way I read it they would not be able to use that data without a warrant, which will likely mean that law enforcement will no longer be paying for a third party when they could just use the warrant to get it directly from the telcos. (Unless the telcos don't have historical data but a third party does? Either way, a warrant would be required to gather that data without risking jeopardizing the entire case.)
