- fluidcruft 2mo agoConvincing argument vs plain view doctrine.
- estearum 2mo agoMaybe spend some more time digging into the case law amigo
- unethical_ban 2mo agoIf you like omnipresent surveillance, just say it.
- fluidcruft 2mo agoI don't have to like it to know it's perfectly legal.
- estearum 2mo agoYou should go read the United States v Jones concurrence and try to figure out why five Justices disagree with you. Have some curiosity about the world! You can also read Carpenter v United States for some background thoughts on why it's not as simple as Justice Fluidcruft condescendingly imagines it to be. In fact if you're really curious, you could even look at the state cases that are bubbling their way up like Commonwealth v McCarthy. If only everyone were as confident and simplistic as you, we could avoid all these darn cases :(
- fluidcruft 2mo agoidk how installing a GPS tracker is even remotely comparable to taking photographs of publicly visible license plates in plain view in public but please do go on refusing to engage facts.
- estearum 2mo agoAh, someone didn't read the opinions. Shame. Confidence and ignorance live another day!
- unethical_ban 2mo agoBoth allow cops to track people as they travel without a warrant.
- fluidcruft 2mo agoPeople don't have any expectation that the license plate on their car cannot be seen by law enforcement. People do not expect their phones to be feeding their locations to cops and they do not expect things hidden on them unknowingly to exist. But it really stretches believability that people have no idea that cops check license plate. Or that cops communicate with each other about license plates to coordinate searches or that cops have databases of license plates. Heck there's a whole trope in media that you need to swap license plates to hide from cops. Next you're going to be telling us we need a warrant for an Amber alert.
- estearum 2mo agoYou should read SCOTUS opinions instead of forming beliefs based on media tropes, duh.
- fluidcruft 2mo ago> you should go away until you agree with me so that I don't have to engage in discussion I didn't ask you to reply to any of my comments.
- otterley 2mo agoI’d like it if you provided relevant quotes from these opinions that support your assertions. It’s not very persuasive otherwise. These cases are highly nuanced. Also, you’re being kind of a dick. Knock it off.
