Homeland Security Proves It Knows Little About The Internet - Or The Law
"Equally troubling is that magistrate judge Margaret Nagle signed off on the warrants (literally, with a rubber stamp) without questioning any of this, from the look of things."When judges sign off on stuff like this, do they consult at all with independent technical experts on the implications of the evidence, or do they just take the conclusions at face value? I sure hope they consult because even if they're good at what they do, how can they be expected to be any sort of check on the process when they haven't the technical background to interpret the evidence?
