Until 18 months ago TONS of PD’s thought they were perfectly entitled to go into driveways and frontyards to retrieve GPS trackers off of cars, or plant them, there, too.

They probably STILL do.

They think if you found an unlabeled something on/in your car and you remove it (which any sane person would do) that is Theft, even worse if it stops working for any reason it is still theft which can be used to get a search warrant for anyplace you might have gone.
