U.S. police departments are using "reverse" searches to obtain large amounts of user data from tech companies like Google, in order to identify criminal suspects. These searches allow authorities to compel companies to turn over information from their databases.

The legality of these court-approved orders is also being debated, with a likely legal challenge before the U.S. Supreme Court. Other tech companies, such as Microsoft and Snap, have also received reverse search warrants for user data.
