It's a pretty clear violation of the 4th amendment. Won't stop companies from building this tech into their wireless headphones, though.
How's that working for defendants' these days? ~~Wasn't there a big case in Pennsylvania invalidating this in some sneaky way or something?~~
~~Something something Foregone conclusion doctrine~~
Nothing comes up when you search Pennsylvania + foregone conclusion. Unless you mean police making you give up passwords, which was deemed illegal by higher courts.
No but aren't there many exceptions to 4th and variably so? Its seems like its not so clear cut these days
No, 4th amendment is pretty cut and dried.
With the exception of Terry Stops.
Or maybe build it into some neat cowboy hats?
