New Jersey Lawmakers Not as Clueless as Previously Thought

by David Evans on April 22, 2008   in Legal

Turns out Jersey politicos are capable of rational thought. They may not understand online dating but they sure do get privacy issues.

The New Jersey Supreme Court yesterday asserted the privacy rights of online computer users by ruling that law enforcement agencies MUST obtain jury warrants before seeking personal information from ISPs. This makes the New Jersey courts the first in the US to rule that people have an inherent expectation of privacy when online.
