... There is nothing waiting to be seen. The court ruled, as hundreds of cases have been ruled before, that Fourth Amendment protections only apply if there is an expectation of privacy. Its opinion made clear that they were ignoring whether warrantless use of APLR data is a Fourth Amendment issue because you can't have a Fourth Amendment issue if there is no expectation of privacy and there can be no expectation of privacy in Yang's specific situation. It didn't uphold the use of the data. It said it didn't need to address the use of the data, because it was a moot point. This is like arguing with someone that a court didn't say Dragons couldn't be charged with a crime because the court only said Dragons aren't real. Please stop doubling down. | ||
