Presume that you are a police officer. Would you feel comfortable if an ANTIFA or BLM demonstrator had scanned your cellphone and as a result you might have a mob demonstrating at your front door?

"Well, he could have been an antifa, so fair's fair"
Also, where did you get the story about the cellphone scanner from thing from? Did you watch some cable TV and confused it for actual reality?
I know that my marijunna bootlegging tenants' scum sucking whore of an attorney was horrified when my casual googling to apprise myself of cases he is representing revealed not just his home address (street named after a palace in London) but that he is married to a Deputy District Attorney for Columbia County. Presuming that this woman is a scum sucking whore of an attorney just like her husband, how concerned should her boss and the judges be about prosecutorial misconduct including intentionally presenting perjured testimony, and intentionally wrongful convictions?
Okay, so you googled an attorney's name and found his address, therefore an app exists that enables a cellphone to grab enough data off of local radio to accurately determine the subscriber id of a cellphone in the vicinity, trace said subscriber id back to a provider, issue a subpoena to said provider forcing them to unmask the subscriber, leading to protesters using that information to show up at some officers' doorstep, which thus justifies police conduct in this matter?
You truly have no idea about what is and is not possible (let alone feasible) in the world today, do you
