Judges: FBI's child-porn search illegal. I think, along with most everyone, that child pornography should not exist what so ever and that those who are caught should be brought to justice. This article gave me a lot to think about though, concerning the line that is drawn on the rights of unwitting people. "Thousands of individuals would be subject to search, their homes invaded and their property seized, in one fell swoop, even though their only activity consisted of entering an e-mail address into a Web site from a computer located in the confines of their own home...".
