Heard about this possibly coming into effect a while ago... All I know is, I feel sorry for those with illegal tracks on their IPOD's, since the RIAA has been jumping at the reigns to allow the seizure and prosecution of anyone caught with illegally downloaded music in their personal belongings.
Oh how I love the patriot act, raping privacy in the ass with FORCE.

By the way, did anyone notice that "random" gate searches are back? I got all my shit checked over while waiting in line to board in PHL.

It shits ALL over the Fourth fucking Amendment, even gives them the "right" to seize and make copies of personal letters that you may have on your person that haven't made it into the postal service and thus haven't become "mail" yet, even if it is sealed and with postage. ![]() I've been resistant to the near hysteria and hyperbole associated with rabid criticism of the Bush administration, but this new revelation is so egregiously unconstitutional that I can't help but feel affected viscerally. It makes me physically sick to think of how bad things have gotten if this is the case. Last edited by TheGreatDeceiver : August 2nd, 2008 at 01:44 PM. |

I honestly don't think they're going to be doing these gung ho searches without justification. If it can some thwart some nefarious nogoodniks, more power to em'. What's everyone worried about, having the feds finding their Eva Angelina mpeg collection?!?!

The last time I went through customs it was almost too easy.
Customs offical: "What are these strange seeds?" Me: "They are used in some kind of Japanese holiday." Customs offical: : "Oh...uhhh...What are they exactly?" Me: "I'm not sure." Customs offical: "Well, you won't eat them or plant them, right?" Me: "Uhhhh yeah, sure." Customs offical: "Alright, you can go." |
