Say they, hypothetically, the police just looked at every drivers license photo of people living in a 1 mile radius. And they find the suspect, and go to a judge saying a combination of appearance, perpetrator in suspects driveway, and criminal history gives probable cause for a search. I don’t think that’s any different.

If they came to the judge and said “an informant said we’ll find the gun here” and the informant was actually Clearview, thats obviously a problem.
