253. You have no expectation of privacy when providing information to the govt willingly.
Period.

By your logic criminal background check for firearms would be Unconstitutional. The checking of data against felon database would constitute an unreasonable search and thus be Unconstitutional.

Of course it doesn't because computer records matching is not a search.

Given the Police are only acting upon people with outstanding warrants the govt has already used due process to conduct a search on that person once they are matched.
