Well, if that makes you sick... You'll be glad to know that Barbara Boxer, another Northern California politician with a proud, prominent liberal record routinely ranks as one of the highest recipients of campaign contributions from the industries represented by the MPAA and the RIAA.
And to think, she started out on the Marin County Board of Supervisors, right in Silicon Valley's backyard.
BTW, the Fourth Amendment only protects you from unreasonable search and seizure--you know, coming into your house without a search warrant.
But if you're charged with criminal violation of the DMCA or the CBDTPA, courts will only be too happy to supply a warrant to the police. And the Supreme Court's been routinely eroding citizens' zone of privacy for the last 20+ years. Even better, when you log on to the Internet, you're deemed to be "in public" even if you're sitting in your living room.
Yeah, don't count on the Supreme Court to overturn a passed CBDTPA on 4th Amendment grounds. The people are on their own on this one . |
