@David R: yes we are all familiar with the government's argument in this case. What this does not consider is that government's authority to follow a suspect has until lately been extremely limited by the cost of doing so. With the new technology, the cost surveillance has has decreased by orders of magnitude, which makes 'fishing expeditions' viable. These are the sorts of personal rights that people have died to protect.
