Same kind of thing really. Detectives have made arrests before based on
evidence collected from computer hardware or boxes of disks thrown
away. As has been explained to me before, even formatting a hard drive
does not clear all the data.<br>
<br>
Good to read that a criminal search warrant was used to authorize this
online search. My guess is that they already had some pretty
incriminating evidence where the files were. <br>
<br>
Does raise an interesting legal question. Can the police here execute a
search warrant in your physical company, to command access to search
and inspect your online files or is the jurisdiction of a digital
search limited to a single physical location that may contain some
files.<br>
<br>

FBI agents targeting alleged criminal spammers last year obtained a
trove of incriminating documents from a suspect’s Google Docs account,
in what appears to be the first publicly acknowledged search warrant
benefiting from a suspect’s reliance on cloud computing.
