Oral argument from last week's Supreme Court case "Riley v.
California". It's mainly about the difference between the police
searching your wallet and searching your smartphone. There is some
technical stuff (like referring to prior cases), but most of it is
common language.

I don't know what you think the police will do, but I know for a fact
what they do in the netherlands, regardless of what they are entitled to
do.
They search and store everything and keep it forever, just like our ISP's
Windows, Google and all other companies that manage to steel our private
data.

The police here in the USA seem to be no different. There is a difference
between what they are permitted to do and what they actually do. The
"climate" of law enforcement has changed. Citizens are viewed as suspicious
and we are treated that way. The police are supposed to protect and serve
the public, they do neither. The courts have ruled that they are not
obligated to protect us. They serve their own interests rather than the
public's.
