They can subpoena all that info and get it relatively quickly. Or you could give your passwords to someone, just in case.
Regarding sex trafficking... I feel like the second a woman is missing longer than a week people jump to sex trafficking. Why would traffickers be in rural Iowa picking up a woman over 18 with family, loved ones, and a busy life that is sure to be missed quickly? That makes no sense at all when they can grab a person with no connections in a much more vulnerable place.
A million times yes. It's scary so people love talking about it but if you look at the statistics, most sex trafficking victims are from out of the country and/or vulnerable runaways. It's tied into smuggling, prostitution, drug dealing. The untraceable and unmissed. The abused and discarded. The goal is money and to continue a criminal enterprise - they are not going to do something to land their operation on the cover of the New York Times and on the nightly news.
If we actually cared about the actual abused and neglected girls stolen into sex trafficking we would put more resources into child protective services, border smuggling, and foster care systems. Those are the children traded for sex, not upper-middle-class white women abducted off the street in Ohio.
