re: Should law enforcement be able to track people's movements indefinitely without a warrant?

So they can't trail or follow you either?

Everyday when you are simply going about your business, like the cameras?

I'm just surprised we've finally found a breaking point. Even some of the "I DON'T DO ANYTHING WRONG TO BE WORRIED ABOUT......" types are coming around.

The answer is YES. When you’re moving around in public with no expectation of privacy, I’m afraid you’re fair game.

Look, we have a retard.

In a few months he'll be saying, "Of course they can monitor you at home, you'll be totally fine if you have nothing to hide."

Do people even study history anymore, FFS?

... heck NO ...

Last summer, July 2025, the I-10 Miss. consortium was able to bribe a few author. and attempted to assassinate me using those cameras as a tracking device. Not just once, but three times. The first time involved a minor "accident" and the police were called. During the interview by the officers I pointed out the camera setup throughout the I-10 corridor Louisiana thru Miss so they would be required to view the video footage. At that time there was heavy construction with the new Buccees under construction. Sure enough , the guy was "jamming" me with purpose to collide with a heavy construction crane. Anyway I did not damage my car, but the other car received deep scratches. I did not receive any tickets .
So the investigation revealed the 42 slammers front involved in that insurance fraud case here in New Orleans.
They tried taking me out that time, then again in mid-Aug ---- a pit maneuver at the Biloxi on-ramp, but I was ready . That maneuver was incredible, no collision not even a slowdown of traffic. But it was close.
The third time was again at the Biloxi ramp, but this time it was a hot police pursuit which ended up with that car planted in the mud and tall grass at the foot of the Moss Point bridge. They caught them. The group was out talking to officers and from the look of their uni-es it looked to be a group from the Bay St Louis Casino. even saw a few tattoos.
Later that year the trail for that insurance fraud case happened and both were found guilty. But the strange part of all that ---- the perps had the cuffs slapped on AFTER the verdict and they were being charged for something different ...

So here we are today --- another trial is going on for the federal witness that was killed in a terrible car wreck .
These people tracked him, in his car , and killed him making it look like an accident.

Those cameras ? Bad idea
Another type of vault 7.

This is the current state of the law based on laws and decisions originally made 100 years ago before cameras were ubiquitous. I’m not sure that this doesn’t need to be revisited. Allowing the government to constantly track everyone’s movements 24/7 is troubling - very 1984ish.

You are correct. New caselaw distinguishes between continuous, automated devices that are distinguished from older tech that cold surveil/track you for discrete time periods and maybe even just certain (always public in all cases) places.
The two leading cases on this are: Carpenter v. United States and Chatrie v. United States.

But I doubt these cases would apply to something like flock cameras since they don't follow a person around all the time.

Then everyone should be able to access the data. Public data on public property
