A proposed amendment to Article 41 of the United States federal Rules of criminal procedure clearly unconstitutional could grant rights to US judges. The proposed new powers would allow US federal judges to grant access to search distance of a target computer where "the district where the media or information was concealed by technological means." That is to say, if Article 41 isn 't shot in Congress, law enforcement will be able to find American judges who are more than willing to issue warrants for any computer whose IP address is hidden Tor or a VPN service. The update rule 41 is so ambiguous that law enforcement could use the rule to go after those of us who deny the location data of some smartphone applications. If that was not enough by itself, the second part of the update section 41 allows law enforcement to use malware on an infected computer botnet in order to find the botnet operator. Instead, what is likely to be found is a lot of private information that we can not trust the government to remove. We must do all we can to avoid such a dystopian, Orwellian future.
