    They wouldn't give you any details now. The guards could get details but only if it was merited in doing so

    A mobile operator is by law prohibited to store any kind of communication. Even if the Gardai were to request the content of your past text messages they could not get them, all they could get is traffic information (i.e. who you send or received the message from and at what time).

    If the Gardai need the contents of your text messages they have to get a court order. This is called "lawful interception". The mobile operator will then relay a copy of every text message or call to them and only for the specific endpoints (users) specified in the court order. But they will only be able to get the messages that were sent/received *after* the court order was issued, as the content of the previous messages was never stored or relayed anywhere.
