Get to Know Keynote Speaker Nathan Freed Wessler
Nathan Freed Wessler (@NateWessler) is a staff attorney with the ACLU Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project, where he focuses on litigation and advocacy around surveillance and privacy issues, including government searches of electronic devices, requests for sensitive data held by third parties, and use of surveillance technologies. In 2017, he argued Carpenter v. United States in the U.S. Supreme Court, a case that established that the Fourth Amendment requires law enforcement to get a search warrant before requesting cell phone location data from a person’s cellular service provider.
Nate was previously a legal fellow in the ACLU National Security Project, where he was involved in litigation seeking transparency and accountability for targeted killing and challenging unlawful detentions at the U.S. prisons in Bagram and Guantanamo. Prior to that, he served as a law clerk to the Hon. Helene N. White of the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Sixth Circuit. Nate is a graduate of Swarthmore College and New York University School of Law, where he was a Root-Tilden-Kern public interest scholar. Before law school, he worked as a field organizer in the ACLU’s Washington Legislative Office.
In his keynote, Carpenter and Beyond: How to Win a Strong Fourth Amendment for the Digital Age, Nate will discuss how in Carpenter v. United States, the Supreme Court held that a warrant is required for law enforcement access to a person’s historical cell site location information, rejecting the government’s argument that the third-party doctrine should apply. Nate will discuss the strategy that won the day in Carpenter, and how to leverage the lessons of that decision to further expand Fourth Amendment rights in the digital age.
