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.
Why was that?
Because the records were not part of one’s personal effects, perhaps?
I need to understand more in this latest one, as it seems both consumers and competitors are damaged with antitrust violations.
