Justifiable, imo, if a person is a suspect in terrorism or some criminal endeavor. But... WTH is happening to this country?

The question is will you be considered a suspect of terrorist or criminal acts
because you use TOR or VPN or PGP encryption or a flash drive based OS?

Then undoubtedly a legitimate judge would issue a valid search warrant.

Well, gosh, it's not like any businesses or companies use VPN so their employees can have a secure connection back to the company networks.

yep, no way almost EVERY major corporation on the PLANET uses VPN for field user to connect securely back to the corporate network

Idiots.

Time after time.

Idiots.

And as a matter of fact concepts like TOR and VPN should be the norm in mainstream computing and not the exception.

I will for the moment abandon arguing for private web browsing, although that really should be commonplace.

But VPN? (Virtual Private Network) or a similar equivalent should really be THE most common way for us to access our information. What should be happening is that instead of your info being on some cloud service with Apple, Google, or Microsoft... all that private data, pics, docs, habits, personal assistant history and profile should all be held LOCALLY on your own primary home computer. Since a large percentage of us have broadband internet, it’s no big deal to run our own personal cloud.

There should be open standards for this.

We should be able to do 99% of the things that our favorite apps do without compromising our habits or identities AT ALL. Because our surfing should be private if we pay for it, and our personal info should live on our own encrypted private networks run from our own homes.

THAT would be privacy. Does anyone see any real meaninful push for this? No. While you can find bits and pieces of such services and if you are highly computer savvy you can go to all the trouble to have some of this yourself, there are no real turnkey solutions for the average user that provide full personal cloud services between phone, tablet, laptop, desktop, media player.

There are other ways for technology to work for us that can keep our lives private, besides the ways the big data carriers are trying to sell us.

It’s past time for the general public to lean a little about this topic and wake up. Demand something different and better for privacy.

No search warrant, no access. Anything beyond that should be strictly illegal with no allowance for intentions. Any access of non-public material without search warrant violates our Constitutional rights.

People suggesting that American citizens are terrorists for expressing the same ideas that the Founders did should be summarily shot.
But the revolutionary fire has been bred out of our people.

If you are using a public Wi-Fi access point to look at anything sensitive, you should be using a VPN.

And, if the FBI can break your VPN, then so can al Qaeda, not to mention Barack Obama!

What’s to prevent the FBI from gathering data from every politician’s computer in a giant fishing expedition & passing blackmail material to the WH when that politician declares himself a candidate for high office?

This stuff makes the movie “Enemy of the State” look like kindergarten stuff.

The start of the pre-crime police division. You will be arrested, convicted and sent to prison because they think you were going to do something illegal.

Let’s turn it around, now that you mention it, I think all public employees must report their net worth and annual income yearly to an agency permitted to release that information to the public if they thought there was reason to believe illegal or unethical things were happening.

Translation...

The Administration along with Holder's FBI want to usurp the U.S. Constitution by making an illegal law that violates the 4th Amendment of the Bill of Rights.

That way they can go after all who disagree with them politically speaking.

How any court can intelligently rule on these matters is a great curiosity to me.

Only justifiable if you can also justify going after someone because you saw them pass a note by hand or whisper into an ear - must be hiding something ya know...

How about all them diaries with locks on them? Or storage units with padlocks. Hell, while we're at it, how about all them folks that lock their houses up whether they are at home or out?

ANY VPN? That sounds like a Federal license to steal.
