The Supremes will hopefully overturn this liberal idiocy and assault on our Constitution.

But to your point getdul981. A cellphone can be a tracking device if the police get a warrant and use it for a Constitutional and legal purpose. They can use your telephone call records and pinpoint locations based on cell towers your phone uses. A GPS can be a tracking device.

I watched a case on Court TV a few years back when a woman's EZ Pass records were subpoenaed and used to prove she driven into a certain state the night her husband was murdered.

Did you know all "modern" vehicles are equipped with a device called an vehicle speed sensor or VSS that gathers information about the rotation of your wheels? It is used for anti-lock braking systems. The police can use the info from the VSS to tell the speed you were traveling at impact if your car is in an accident.

My daughter works for a utility locating company in Baltimore. The company uses, not only GPS devices on all vehicles, they use cameras inside the vehicles to record the drivers and a camera shooting footage in the front and back of the vehicle.

We are being tracked with this forum with the Google Ad thingies in a sense. It is the subtle erosion of our liberties and freedoms that makes people gradual seem to accept that it is okay for the police come on your private property and put a a tracking devise on your personal property without a warrant.

It's that little probable cause thing that is the stickler. I remember a while back, one of my first posts in political was a reply about our rights being taken away and how shocked I was to watch COPS and see searches of vehicles without warrants and people put in handcuffs while the police searched your vehicle without putting you under arrest.

djplong was the first to say how that was okay and didn't bother him. That snowball effect folks. It is like a law of gravity. You can't see it but it is there all the same.

Big Brother is watching us that is why it is so very important to assure our Constitutional rights are protected and upheld.
