American privacy rights just got a little stronger. The Supreme Court has limited the use of “geofence” search warrants in a major legal ruling that is likely to have broad ramifications for individuals and law enforcement officers.

Now the government plans to strengthen the law, citing evidence that the ban hasn’t worked since it went into effect last December.

so, if #tech is the #broligarchy’s #war machine, they’re military targets.
