of “a device that is not in general public use, to explore details of the home that would previously have been unknowable without physical intrusion.”
The reflexive justification for warrantless searching is that it’s reasonable without suspicion or a warrant because threats to transportation are so great. In reality, they’re not, as dispassion will tell anyone doing transportation risk assessment. The argument also proves too much because transportation is not a uniquely vulnerable infrastructure. Anyone appearing where people congregate would be reasonably searched if open-ended location vulnerability were the rule.
