Judge on Suspicionless Laptop Searches & Seizures: Better Off Leaving Devices at Home | MyFDL
by Decius at 9:13 am EDT, Jul 27, 2011

District Judge Edward Korman weakly defended a person’s right to not be subjected to unreasonable searches or seizures, suggesting, according to Reuters, “Travelers who want to keep U.S. border agents from seeing sensitive documents on their laptops and cell phones may be better off leaving those devices at home.”

He added, “There are lots of burdens people are subject to in order to protect their security and the security of others.” And, “It may become impossible to conduct such searches if you’re going to set up evidentiary standards.”

Why don't we just get rid of the 4th amendment all together - its obvious that people just don't care any more.
