Feds want an expanded ability to hack criminal suspects' computers
http://j.mp/1l8TPDF (Ars Technica)
"If passed as currently drafted, federal authorities would gain an
expanded ability to conduct "remote access" under a warrant against a
target computer whose location is unknown or outside of a given
judicial district. It would also apply in cases where that computer is
part of a larger network of computers spread across multiple judicial
districts. In the United States, federal warrants are issued by judges
who serve one of the 94 federal judicial districts and are typically
only valid for that particular jurisdiction."
