Cops Could Use Data From Your Car’s GPS To Convict You Of A Crime

“The cops don’t necessarily need a warrant to go to car companies and ask for your GPS data, William McGeveran, a law professor at the University of Minnesota, told Business Insider.  ‘Just the same way that law enforcement can go to your bank or dry cleaner and ask questions about your activities there, they could go to Ford,’ McGeveran said. ‘Under the third party doctrine, it suggests that when your activities give information to a company, you’re waiving your reasonable expectation of privacy, so it’s not required that there be a warrant.’  ‘There is not any special legal protection for location data,’ McGeveran said.”
