Normalize Cell Phone Tracking

Cell phone tracking is a great tool when it is involved in an emergency situation, like abductions, suicide calls, and murders. Police officers now have the technology to track someones location by using a device, commonly called a stingray, which acts like a cellphone tower and tricks cellphones into connecting with the device. Since the police now have that device, they can prevent emergencies that could result in death from happening. It is only in emergency situations that Police do not have to get a warrant from a judge to use the device. However, if it is for a not life threatening emergency like locating a thief or something where someone is not going to die, the Police have to get a warrant from a judge. It can be compared to getting a warrant to search
I also think that cell phone tracking will be used more and be a normalized tool for the police. Even though many people believe that the Police are violating the fourth amendment by doing so, there is the factor that by tracking phones emergency situations can be solved quickly and safely. But there is also the fact of cell phone tracking not by the police, but by parents. I only focused on police tracking because it is one of the most controversial topics relating to phone tracking. But there are now apps that allow parents to track their children at all times while the phone is on. Now that is not extreme as police phone tracking but it just proves that phone tracking is becoming a normalized tool. But the use of cell phone tracking shows how untrusting people can be of the government and the Police, and it also proves that people will continue to be untrusting of the Police if they continued to misuse the tracking device. It also shows that if the Police continue to do the same things they are doing now, they will continue to hide information from the people and do things on their own
