Some good news today. Why Supreme Court's GPS ruling will improve your privacy rights | Privacy Inc. - CNET News Today's GPS tracking case arose out of a criminal prosecution of Antoine Jones and Lawrence Maynard, two suspected cocaine dealers who ran a nightclub in Washington, D.C. Jones said the warrantless use of a GPS device to track every movement of his vehicle over the course of a month violated the Fourth Amendment, which generally says that warrantless searches are "unreasonable." That reasoning suggests police also need to obtain warrants before tracking the locations of cell phones and mobile devices, another contentious topic currently before the courts, said Greg Nojeim, an attorney at the Center for Democracy and Technology. A careful look at the way the justices ruled today suggests that "a warrant would be required before cell phones could be turned into tracking devices," Nojeim said.
About goddamn time those traitors on the Supreme Court did their fucking jobs (that they were never meant to do under the Constitution). The states were supposed to decide what is Constitutional not some aristocratic court.
