In a big win for privacy, the US Supreme court ruled that authorities must have a warrant to access a person's location information from their cell phone. The ruling was 5-4, so it definitely had people against it, but I do feel this is good to protect citizens from abuse by law enforcement and others. People may think this could make finding terrorists take longer, but I disagree, as if the authorities have proof or probable cause, they can surely get a warrant withing a couple of hours.
