No, it didn't. It refused to hear an appeal in which the Virginia Supreme Court ruled as such. SCOTUS has consistently ruled that reasonable suspicion (not probable cause, to which the article keeps referring) is the threshold for TLE stops.

No, it won't. Even if the tip comes from an illegal or immoral action on the part of the tipper, unless the tipper was acting under the color of law, the tip is not presumed invalid.
