Comment If it's for National Security (Score 1) 332
OK, let's presuppose the argument that this is necessary to national security is valid. Great. I stipulate that nothing discovered in such a search should be admissible for any crime that does not fall under National Security purview.
Of course, I don't find this is a valid argument, since you could then argue anything was a National Security matter. Still, I don't suppose it is realistic to expect politicians to see it that way.
What I'd really like to see are some Draconian punishments for agency personnel who abuse this access.
