Summary
Examines three decisions in Supreme Court case United States v. Jones , which considered whether Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures applied to the police placing a GPS device on a personal vehicle without warrant. Summarizes divergent justice opinions on whether it was the attachment of the GPS device or the long-term monitoring itself that constituted an actual search. Discusses implications of Supreme Court ruling for police use of various kinds of technology and for search warrant requirements.
