it happened to me (Score 1)

police state indeed. ICE raided my home under very similar circumstances. Only difference is that instead of unsecured wireless, the Feds linked 3 jpegs on a kiddie porn site to my ip address, which was running a Tor exit. stupid me for thinking the pigs would at least investigate a bit before kicking down my door. At 7am, while i was at work, 15 ICE agents raided my house with battle gear and automatic weapons, while my three children and wife slept inside. My non techie wife had a tough time with my explanation of what Tor is, mostly i think she was just thinking "cops, guns, child porn" over and over. They still have my stuff, maybe ill get it back. I have a lawyer working pro bono on educating the ICE agent who pushed the warrant. In the meantime, i am pissed, my family is scared, and i have finally realized that the authorities are NOT here to help.
