The real story here isn’t hat Apple lost, but that Kavanaugh jumped hip again and sided with the liberals again. He’s looking pretty shaky so far.
We saw a peculiar case last year with the Carpenter decision. Roberts sided with the liberals in ruling that cell phone records were subject to Fourth Amendment protections. Most Freepers agreed with that ruling, but on reading Justice Thomas’ dissent it was obvious to me that under a clear reading of the Constitution the Fourth Amendment was not applicable.
But so far, it appears to me as if he’s right in this case. Which matters.
Kavanaugh was educated his entire life by leftist Jesuits. Kavanaugh will be a reliable liberal vote on the court.
