Correction

I posted below regarding the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals decision to ignore the 4th Amendment to the Constitution--well, just some of the time, they say. It turns out that Timshel DID note this--I didn't see it at the time. Here's the link to his post and here's the Advocate's story.

And here's the 4th Amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

The full text of the Constitution can be found here.

Maybe the clerks can pass the word about this neat new invention called the internet to the judges who sit on the court. All sorts of fun stuff can be found. Of course, most of them would immediately discover porn, and the wheels of justice would grind to a halt.
