By Kevin Poulsen, SecurityFocus

"A federal appeals court has declined to reverse last year's decision that the issuance of an egregiously overbroad subpoena for email can qualify as a computer intrusion in violation of anti-hacking laws. This is despite an argument by the Justice Department that a side-effect of the ruling has already made it harder for law enforcement officials to obtain Americans' private email."

(Read the rest of the article at the link above).

Quite refreshing to see that not ALL judges have rolled over yet. Actually gives one hope.

Can you imagine? The Federal government actually has to follow "due process" in these cases. No wonder they're screaming. Very Happy Pete
