This used this at the capitol house riot, right?
Yes.
From the article:
These warrants were used on an unprecedented scale in order to identify over 5,000 devices at the US Capitol during the January 6th riot. The FBI were able to identify phones that were on airplane mode or out of service, and even received data about users who had attempted to delete their location history after the fact. In fact, the attempts to delete location history after the riot were used by the FBI to single out 37 individuals for further investigation.7

What is your take on this? Too much power for the government?

Oh heck yeah.
They should definitely need a search warrant with a name for this kind of data. At the very least.
