Google has announced it will make changes to its maps tool, making it impossible to access its customer's location history. This means the company will no longer comply with law enforcement warrants seeking data on people in the vicinity of a crime. Cyrus Farivar, a senior writer for Forbes covering tech and innovation, joined CBS News to discuss why Google's making the move.
