Obama Wants Computer Privacy Ruling Overturned

The Obama administration is seeking to reverse a federal appeals court decision that dramatically narrows the government’s search-and-seizure powers in the digital age.

Solicitor General Elena Kagan and Justice Department officials are asking the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to reconsider its August ruling that federal prosecutors went too far when seizing 104 professional baseball players’ drug results when they had a warrant for just 10.

So I was wondering what your opinions on this are as this has an affect on every American. How strongly should computer privacy rights be protected? Is the luxury of security more beneficial than freedom?

"It’s about those moments when you can feel the perfection of creation, the beauty of physics, the wonder of mathematics, you know?
