Two New Fed GPS Trackers Found On SUV
jcombel writes with this excerpt:
"As the Supreme Court gets ready to hear oral arguments in a case Tuesday that could determine if authorities can track U.S. citizens with GPS vehicle trackers without a warrant, a young man in California has come forward to Wired to reveal that he found not one but two different devices on his vehicle recently. The 25-year-old resident of San Jose, California, says he found the first one about three weeks ago on his Volvo SUV while visiting his mother in Modesto, about 80 miles northeast of San Jose. After contacting Wired and allowing a photographer to snap pictures of the device, it was swapped out and replaced with a second tracking device. A witness also reported seeing a strange man looking beneath the vehicle of the young man’s girlfriend while her car was parked at work, suggesting that a tracking device may have been retrieved from her car. Then things got really weird when police showed up during a Wired interview with the man."
If he wants the cops to disappear, he should just dial 911 in a shitty neighborhood.
SJW: Someone who has run out of real oppression, and has to fake it.
I think I'd rather make them work a bit harder to get it back. I'd go to a party supply store, buy a big bunch of helium balloons, and send their tracker on a slow gentle float out of the city at 5,000 feet. This would be especially effective on days where the wind is heading offshore...
