Fed. Appeals Court Says Police Need Warrant to Search Phone
http://j.mp/YQOoQl (Slashdot)
"In a decision that's almost certainly going to result in this
issue heading up to the Supreme Court, the Federal 1st Circuit
Court of Appeals [Friday] ruled that police can't search your
phone when they arrest you without a warrant. That's contrary to
most courts' previous findings in these kinds of cases where
judges have allowed warrantless searches through cell phones."
