In that light, I can see why Ohio ruled the way it did. I don't think there is yet an app for making your phone into a noose or a shank, but I could be wrong. You want to limit what people have access to in jail, but things in cloud are dodgy...
At some point, especially with a half decent lawyer, some dude in California is going to go at least to the lowest federal level over this, since Ohio ruled the opposite. Going back to GP about how the phone is different because it's on your person... If your phone is linked to your email and such, that should not be viewable without a warrant, since we can't go look at all the stuff that the keys in your pocket unlock.
It would be a bit hairy if they open your phone and see an email from jluis@medallin.co... at which point, I would go get a warrant for your email, just for CYA.
