      So far the courts have determined that since providers invade their customer privacy of their own free will with no incentive or coersion by any government agency, that it is not a search by the goverment. It's just your friendly trillion dollar tech company putting on a mask and cape and engaging in a bit of vigilante fun. You know? Like batman! ( this video )

      Agreed, old news. Also think about apartment buildings with coax [LINK] "Human intruder detection with Leaky Coaxial cables for wide area surveillance system" 2011 [LINK] Paranoid memes below this video [LINK]

      Anybody with $29 can track a target by leveraging everyone else's iPhone. Whether the target uses a phone or not is of no consequence. Batman showed us the future and Apple delivered.[0] [0] this video
