Re: Unanimous Supreme Court Ruling Mandating a Warrant to Search Cell-Phone/Computer
A good decision -- I have always been "leery" of warrantless searches of any kind. Too much "fishing expedition" not enough "investigation."
Now, let's get some of the more noisome elements of the Patriot Act dropped -- there were a few improvements that are worthy of maintaining -- and I will be even happier.

Re: Unanimous Supreme Court Ruling Mandating a Warrant to Search Cell-Phone/Computer
If a smart phone contains that much information (and it does) what can be said of government monitoring our every move electronically and reading our e-mails?
This would seem to be a very important ruling. It is not often that they go against the wishes of the other branches.
Education: that which reveals to the wise,
and conceals from the stupid,
the vast limits of their knowledge.
