IANAL, I think that the rule of law is that nothing is safe from a duly processed warrant.

Police can not search your cell phone, hard drive or residence without a warrant.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Is allowing entry witnessing against one's self? INGO Lawyers, don't laugh too hard. I'm just asking a question. I think if I'm served a warrant to search my house or car, or hard drive, or phone, I should be able to say, whatev's but I don't have to help you. Of course the consequences of that is a destroyed door, or lock, or phone or whatever, and I shouldn't expect to see that hard drive again in working condition, even after the authorities have broken the encryption and don't find anything incriminating.

Locks, they will cut off. Doors will be opened by whatever means necessary. Encryption, in some circumstances, may have only "one way" in, requiring "cooperation". Whether this "cooperation" can be be compelled (yes, yes, then it isn't cooperation), under what circumstances and with what consequences is still a matter being worked out in the courts.

The chances of "cooperation" being compelled increase as the means of gaining access decrease.

The fifth only protects your mind. All records are subject to warrant. If it is encrypted and you do not honor the warrant you ate in contempt.

Again, IANAL.

IANAL, but I'll disagree. The info needed is in your mind. They can get a warrant to search your car, but IMO you don't have to tell them where you parked it...

And speaking of warrants. This one seems a bit... Excessive?
The judge signed a warrant for the info of any subscribers or users of google who searched for 4 variations of a guys name.

Do you have to eat the whole warrant?

 

[jamil]

Do you have to eat the whole warrant?

If you do eat the whole warrant. I'd say that's contempt in anyone's book.

Just offer a bounty and let hunters take care of it.

The story didn't say if they compensated the family for the dog or the hospital trip for the kid. Lawsuit?!

California elementary school bans kids from playing 'tag' - Washington Times

LOL. Old news here in Indiana. Kids have not been allowed to play tag in our school district for years. And they can't pick up snow. And can't go out on the snowy playground without boots and snowpants.
