The Obama administration has argued that warrantless tracking is permitted because Americans enjoy no "reasonable expectation of privacy" in their--or at least their cell phones'--whereabouts. U.S. Department of Justice lawyers say that "a customer's Fourth Amendment rights are not violated when the phone company reveals to the government its own records" that show where a mobile device placed and received calls.
In other words, if you have a cell phone that is GPS enabled, the govt sees no reason not to be allowed to track your every movement. I have an iPhone, can I borrow a hammer?
Where is the public outrage?
