QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Did the Court of Appeals err when it determined Instagram’s boilerplate Terms of Service delineated Petitioner’s Fourth Amendment rights and held no search occurred? 2. Does the Fourth Amendment forbid warrantless government trespass on an individual’s digital property under the rationale of United States v. Jones, 565 U.S. 400, 406 (2012)? 3. Did the Ninth Circuit err when it alternatively held that the good faith exception to the exclusionary rule saved suppression? ii LIST OF PROCEEDINGS U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit No. 22-30191 United States of America, Plaintiff Appellee, v.
