Since social networking sites are basically electronic garbage and they're not inside your home, it follows that they can search them too. :gsmile:


Many rulings are not going to be congruent with the electronic age and the expansion of it into every aspect of our lives.

Gee, I've never heard of an organization going around and collecting/monitoring everything that everybody says. This whole concept sounds astoundingly new to me and I cannot fathom that this would even exist. Gee, it's amazing what governments are coming up with these days. Better start bitching about this concept now because nobody has ever done it before.

UGH. We need a supreme court ruling putting data mining under the reigns of the 4th amendment.

What about if your profile is private and they still mine the data anyway?


I think it's safe to say you've never read the fine print before you clicked "I Agree" and signed up to Facebook.

For the record, I've never claimed it's "okay" for governments to be hypocrites and to break their own rules. However it happens. It's always happened. It always will happen. In cases like this, it's utterly insignificant and has no practical influence on your life. And no, it isn't the start of an Orwellian dystopia. It's a pathetic thing to complain about, and you don't care about it because of your principles. You care because you take drugs.

If one of your friends accesses your profile on a computer in a public library, for example, then even after they log off your profile information will no doubt be stored in that computer's internet browser cache for some period of time. Can you really have a reasonable expectation of privacy in the contents of a third party public library's computer's browser cache?

I mean, I'm generally in favor of stronger 4th amendment protection that we currently have, but I think that would be going too far.

I'm pointing out your basic hypocrisies. You change your standards and thinking to suit you in any given moment.

Which is exactly why I think we need to reassess the 4th amendment in context of the new digital world.
