Warrantless GPS tracking violates your privacy rights [Supreme Court]

You may think that law enforcement agencies could not plant a GPS tracker to a car without a warrant, but many people have woke up to the fact that until now, it was a growing practice, thanks to the falling prices of GPS devices. The Supreme Court has ruled that warrantless GPS tracking was unconstitutional and this extends to the position tracking of mobile devices as well (via the cell-tower locations triangulation, or direct GPS location). And although this is not explicit in the ruling, other forms of “electronic bugs” could (or should) be included as well.
