(12-05) 17:02 PST SAN LEANDRO - A pedestrian apparently absorbed in a cell phone call was struck and killed by an Amtrak train in San Leandro today after he walked around a lowered crossing gate and onto the tracks, authorities said.
The victim, a man who was not immediately identified, was struck at 12:30 p.m. by a northbound Capitol Corridor train at the Alvarado Street crossing, about 8 miles south of the Oakland station, Amtrak spokeswoman Vernae Graham said.
None of the 20 passengers or crew aboard the train was injured. That train and two others were delayed and another Capitol Corridor train was cancelled, Graham said.
Crew members aboard the Sacramento-bound train told authorities they saw the victim talking on the cell phone before he was struck, Graham said. The warning lights and gates at the crossing were functioning properly, she added.
- I wonder if he had a Johnny Cash ring tone?

JUNE 23--Meet Jeffrey Barrier. The Ohio man allegedly used a cell phone camera to snap photos of a naked woman at a tanning salon Saturday and then hid the phone in his * in a bid to thwart police.
Standing on a chair, Barrier, 41, took the photos at Cincinnati's Aloha Tanning, where a 35-year-old woman was "in the nude in a tanning room," according to a Hamilton County Municipal Court affidavit. When cops later confronted Barrier, "he kept denying any involvement of the incident" and claimed to not have a camera. However, a second search of the suspect turned up the camera. As noted in a Hamilton County Sheriff's Office report, Barrier "did hide evidence in his *."
Barrier was charged with disorderly conduct for taking the photos and obstructing official business for hampering a police investigation.
Barrier, due in court today, is free on $1500 bond.
-- Maybe he was just making sure he was evenly tanned...

The convenience of being able to call most anywhere I am outweighs any tinfoil hat concerns of what the government is data collecting.
And the information the government collected in the Supreme Court case is meta data only. Nothing from inside the phone.

And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

I have bought and used cell phones since bag phones.

This is a tough one, but has a Constitutional answer. The concept as I understand it, is whether a government entity can either store or get location information en-masse for a number of locations to see if a single number shows up near all of them without a warrant.
I do not see where anyone is arguing against the information being made available if a proper warrant is issued. What is bothersome is that absent the need for a warrant, those government entities can search the database absent cause and on any whim.
Get a warrant. It's the right thing to do.

It has long been My Observation that Cell Phones: are, for a Woman, a Sceptre; and for a Man, Cell Phones are nothing less than a LEASH!
Good. This is why I have never owned a cellphone. It's been a license for Big Bro to snoop and track you. It's 21st century slave chains you have to buy and pay for yourself.

Yet, you have never owned a cell phone! You are one in a million.
Even though I do have a cell phone, I have never sent a text and don't know how to do it.

The historical answer is that if the information could be gathered by another means (say traffic cameras or security cameras) then a warrant is not needed: Eventual Discovery.

Is seems to be a little more complex than that, Alpine. The term is 'inevitable discover', not eventual discovery, and the finding was that evidence obtained absent a warrant is admissible if it can be argued that it would inevitably be found during a normal police investigation.
The reason this is in court I would guess, is to determine whether this type of data mining should be considered normal and therefore need not require a warrant.
I am not convinced that we are best served by writing such a large blank check. It will be interesting to see how the court aligns on this one.

Your family is actually what this is about. You may be to old and tired to care, but your descendants aren't. That which can be abused will eventually be so. Never give the government what it should not be empowered to have.
they can track me and you and we cant do anything about it....

This is true but the threat factor is the big question! Soon The bitcoin users are going to find out just like those Swiss bank accounts holders did!
So the threat factor could change you into a big suspect that I doubt you will be treated innocence until proven guilty, the facts stored on you will be enough to sentence you without a trial
I bet law enforcement would agree in time soon enough! Just look at secret courts to find your answer.

Recent enforcement actions taken by the IRS may suggest the possibility that the IRS is reconsidering its approach to Bitcoin and foreign account informational disclosures. In November 2016, the IRS filed a John Doe summons seeking information relating to U.S. account holders who had Coinbase Bitcoin transactions between 2013 and 2015. The IRS?s summons states that it is ?responsible for monitoring ways in which United States taxpayers evade their United States tax obligations.? In the subsequent paragraph, the IRS suggests that use of digital currencies makes the user ?subject to fewer third-party reporting requirements.? This language would seem to suggest that at least some users have adopted virtual currency because they believe they can avoid reporting requirements potentially including FBAR and FATCA.
keep your phone off until you need to use it. No one can track you then.
I think they can ping it even if it's off.

Technically speaking, an agency like NSA can tweak the firmware of your handsets in order to track them even when they are switched off. Considering how massive the data collection has been by NSA since 9/11 attacks, it would be scary to imagine thousands and millions of people being tracked using the above technique. Till now, the leaks have revealed that NSA maintains a huge database of phone calls made by millions of Americans and outsiders, and they do not include location data. But the rate at which the new leaks are emerging, it should keep the privacy freaks on tenterhooks.

Thanks for the link, it was informative.
