Comment Re:Is it actually fun for a single player? (Score 1) 4

There's effectively no difference between single and multiplayer in NMS. Multiplayer isn't so much a distinct mode of gameplay, as merely hanging out in the game with another player. Think "playing Legos with a friend". Same activity, just more than one person. There are a few features intended to focus on multiplayer, like the nominally co-op Nexus missions - But I'm not aware of any exclusively multiplayer content, and even the Nexus missions are IMO easier to solo than trying to coordinate with someone else. And even in purely single-player mode, you can still see/visit bases/etc from other players, you just won't see the other players themselves.

I suppose a proper answer to your question depends on what you really mean by single-vs-multiplayer, though. There's a core storyline that's honestly more like a long tutorial mode, and they put on events roughly every two months (which are again often about showing off new features); but there's not really anything you'd call a proper "campaign mode". It's fundamentally an open-world exploration / survival / building game, from start to there-is-no-finish.

And just in case anything I've said here sounds negative - NMS is a mind-blowingly good game. Strongly recommend, particularly in VR.

Who is "we" here? Certainly not a failing country that will absolutely cut every corner.

Yes. Chatrie v. United States (No. 25-112), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6â"3 that law enforcement's use of a Google geofence warrant to acquire a person's historical cellphone location data constitutes a "search" under the Fourth Amendment.

That was a ruling on a search which required a warrant, and the ruling states that the district court itself found that the warrant was invalid as it violated the suspect's fourth amendment rights. It would seem to apply except that these are warrantless requests. It also specifically references Carpenter v. United States' determination that such a request as in Chatrie is able to look into the past, which makes possible surveillance which was formerly impossible and was therefore unexpected when the relevant laws were written, but the flock requests we're discussing are for recent information. It remains to be seen whether this court would apply the same logic to these similar but different specific uses.
