I suggest you to think a bit about the context:

- the location logs would be collected by a simple application, witch imply the phone/phone OS itself can do that;

- they do refuse, Legal teams do not, but nothing state they can't satisfy the request TECHNICALLY.

In other words when people tend to disagree with my consideration of smartphone as macro-spy devices bought and kept up by those who get spied as opposite of classic spying gears should think about not only that, but what they do with their (well, not really their, since they are just formal but powerless owners) phones, things like pay taxes, act on their banks accounts, pre-heat/cool their cars etc.

Because such activities have a FAR bigger impact than mere position logs.
