Wow. I’m shocked. This SCOTUS seemed to really love that Police State. Good for them.
good news
Go grab a warrant, Barney Fife!
In the meantime I’ll do a password-protected backup and then do a factory default reset of my phone because it was, um, unresponsive. Search away!
(Yes, there are forensics experts [they have plenty of free time since they aren’t working the IRS case] but in the meantime the local constabulary will be flummoxed.)
Is there a delete all App?
Gone faster that an IRS email.
Must be Roberts Convinced the rest of the court no one should be able to view his pics of him and farm animals
Anyone have an answer on how this interacts with use of the Stingray device?
The Stingray gathers information (even if only minimal) from numerous phones in its area of operation. Now if LE needs a warrant to search a phone after an arrest, it seems to me that it would need a warrant for taking information from phones in the general area of Stingray operation, not just those of people it arrests. Obviously impossible, since innocent people just wander in and out of the Stingray area without even knowing about it.
Is it possible that we can kill two onerous practices with one stone?
Will they shut down the dem operatives who do this? Like the ones in Gainesville who grabbed Newt’s comments?
Now if only someone would inform the NSA.
This is huge victory for the rule of law and the Bill of Rights.
