For those who think this is just another stupid political thread, the gist is this:
Thanks to a court ruling handed down on Monday border patrol agents can search the hardrive on your laptop without a warrant and without probable cause.

I don't have any child pornography so I'm too worried about it.

(Jul 28 06, 09:35)Jaline that happens all the time.
One day I will tell you the story of my 5 hours in the clutches of Canadian Border patrol because I was asleep in teh back of the car when the car drove through and didn't tell them I wasn't a US citizen. OH, and then how they didn't realise I could speak French and could hear them talking about how much they could legally fuck with me before sending me back on the bus.
ahhh...good times....good times....
I wonder if that will come up when I fly into Toronto in a couple months....

who gives a fuck?
seriously, why complain about this?
the only drawback is my computer would literally take weeks to actually "search"
what are they actually searching?

And...
"After learning that Romm had a criminal background, Agent Keith Brown searched his laptop and discovered child porn sites in Romm's Internet history list."
... It's a good thing I don't have a criminal record or go to child pornography sites.

last week on my way into canada they wanted to know if i owned any guns.
which seems like a funny question, seeing as how they knew i was a u.s. citizen. it's like asking if i like red meat.

it doesnt matter if you have the shit on your computer or not, what if the bastids suddenly said they could search your house without a warrant? You wouldnt care because you arent doing anything wrong? What if they came in at 3am and scared the shit out of your kids to do it. Slippery slope.
