FBI Wants To Legally Hack Those On Tor Or VPNs

Post by wackyjacky »

When I saw this, I Thought of you Richard...............SonicSpike writes:
"The investigative arm of the Department of Justice is attempting to short-circuit the legal checks of the Fourth Amendment by requesting a change in the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. These procedural rules dictate how law enforcement agencies must conduct criminal prosecutions, from investigation to trial. Any deviations from the rules can have serious consequences, including dismissal of a case. The specific rule the FBI is targeting outlines the terms for obtaining a search warrant. It's called Federal Rule 41(b), and the requested change would allow law enforcement to obtain a warrant to search electronic data without providing any specific details as long as the target computer location has been hidden through a technical tool like Tor or a virtual private network. It would also allow nonspecific search warrants where computers have been intentionally damaged (such as through botnets, but also through common malware and viruses) and are in five or more separate federal judicial districts. Furthermore, the provision would allow investigators to seize electronically stored information regardless of whether that information is stored inside or outside the court's jurisdiction."

I know something that will be 37 times bigger than the internet.....invest now, invest all you have!



Bigger Than the Internet: Profit From This Red-Hot ‘Time Machine’ Stock

Second chances in life are rare…

But if you missed buying some of the defining stocks of the Internet era (and the MASSIVE returns that came with them), that’s exactly what the market is now giving you…

That’s because of a technology that got its start as a little-known gadget in Bill Gates’ $147.5 million mansion…And has now morphed into a massive new tech market that General Electric puts on par with the Industrial Revolution.

Not only that, experts believe it could be 37 times BIGGER than the Internet (seriously)…

And just like the best Internet stocks of the ‘90s (like AOL and Amazon.com, up 20,000%+ and 10,000%+ respectively), there’s a company that’s perfectly positioned for this massive new tech wave…

Are you ready to take a little more serious debate about this, compared to posting half-empty responses? It would be fun.

As opposed to living in Thailand or Cambodia, where everyone enjoys so much liberty and freedom?
