"Outdated laws shouldn't be an excuse for open season on tracking Americans, and owning a smartphone or fitness tracker shouldn’t give the government a blank check to track your movements," Sen. Ron Wyden, a Democrat of Oregon, said of the legislation he's co-sponsoring.
Consider cell-site tracking, even via stingrays that simulate cell sites. This type of spying has become an important surveillance tool in the aftermath of the US Supreme Court's 2012 ruling that the authorities need a warrant to place GPS trackers on vehicles.
Ron Wyden seems to be one of those guys who when he pops up in the news I always agree with. He's the guy who has proposed most of the net neutrality legislation in the past decade.
