Feingold Presses DHS Secretary About Laptop Seizure Policy | CommonDreams.org
by Decius at 7:31 pm EDT, May 17, 2009

WASHINGTON - May 6 - During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing today on Department of Homeland Security (DHS) oversight, U.S. Senator Russ Feingold questioned DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano about the new administration's policy on customs officials searching travelers' laptops. Last year, Feingold introduced the Travelers Privacy Protection Act in response to a Department of Homeland Security policy allowing customs agents to seize laptops for an unspecified period of time to "review and analyze" their contents "absent individualized suspicion." Feingold has held off on reintroduction of the legislation in order to give the new administration a chance to address the privacy issues raised by the policy.

Senator, if I give you a timeframe and don't meet it you will be unhappy with me but let me suggest within the next 45 days.

Its been more than 45 days. I am unhappy.
