I see a new business opportunity.

Breakable USB sticks, perforated in the middle for easy snapping.

If it's bullshit why riot? I'm not going to riot because some guy in tin foil hat is paranoid. When a republican is in office the left wing nuts think the government is trying to spy on them and take away their freedoms. When a democrat is on office the right wing nuts think the government is trying to spy on them and take away their freedoms. Funny how that works.

ok I maybe not the most Tech Savy here but I think I know a bit...


1- How can they tell that MP3 file in my Laptop or Ipod/Iphone was downloaded on a torrent or simply copied form a CD I have back home?

2- How can they tell that the Microsoft Office Suite I have in my laptop is a legit one or not?

3- How can they tell if the Movie I have in my laptop have been illigally Downloaded or simply copied from a DVD I have back home. (At the begining of movies in French Version of Interpol disclaimer, it says something like : ".... Copy for the private use is allowed ..."

That being said, they scanned my MacBook at Quebec Airport when I got back from Xbiz Vegas last year, they were looking for C-P ... Found nothing beside some galleries I was doing for Penthouse because their "search Software" is not working on Macs, gave them a business card and told them that was a good thing actually... Guys were asking me for sites URL.. lol


So yes I think that in the future, if you carry a a laptop with you thru Security Check, they will do some "random" searches from time to time... Fantastic when you have short layovers..

You don't like this either? You don't want him to protect your Copyrighted material?

The current laws aren't working, so just wondering when you do or don't want him to do something about it.

Have had mine searched twice now..
Once in the US and once in Canada.
You are not really given a choice.

Constitutional rights haven't been very important to the administration in the last decade... lol
