The (mostly) opt-in nature of the service may mitigate but not
completely assuage concerns raised by some lawyers in the
immediate aftermath of the September 12 announcement of the
watch. Elizabeth Joh, a law professor at the University of
California, Davis, was quick to point out that, by inviting
the police into your home, Apple Watch wearers may be opening
themselves up to criminal liability.
