U.S. Supreme Court Takes Up Cases That'll Determine Privacy in Our Cell Phones

"More than 90 percent of American adults own mobile phones, giving the cases broad practical significance. The outcome also may hint at how the justices would view the National Security Agency’s telephone-data program, an issue likely bound for the high court," Bloomberg further writes.
