Feds order Google to track people searching certain names or details
I'm not a Constitutional scholar, but I would bet SCOTUS rules this kind of warrant illegal. Google certainly has the resources to take the case that far.<p>AFAIK a warrant usually is tied to a specific person or a specific crime. In other words, if an explosion killed Harry McHarryface, then it would be constitutional to ask for names of people who searched for Harry.<p>Or if the fertilizer used in the bomb was shown to have been purchased on March 10, then <i>maybe</i> a search for "fertilizer" in the weeks before March 10 would be allowed.<p>But not a generic search.<p>Just my opinion that's not legal advice.
