"Yesterday's ruling from the 9th Circuit also rejected Payne's argument that California Highway Patrol violated his Fourth Amendment rights. The Fourth Amendment dispute involved a special search condition in Payne's parole "requiring him to surrender any electronic device and provide a pass key or code, but not requiring him to provide a biometric identifier to unlock the device," the ruling said."
Didn’t know anyone thought this was unsettled. I’ve been bringing it up for years. Biometrics are not covered by the fifth. Passwords are.
And a parolee does not have those rights to begin with. Consenting to a search at any time is a condition of parole. The Supreme Court has already ruled parolees are technically still incarcerated.
Dang it. I read till the last paragraph before that one. Sorry 😂
