Part of Patriot Act struck down by Judge!

Strike one up for the good guys! Federal Judge Victor Marrero said that investigator’s must have court’s approval before subpoenaing Internet provider’s to hand over records without notifying customers. He further stated that it clearly violated the constitutional concepts and principles of checks and balances!

I hope this develops into a trend. Calling it the Patriot Act doesn’t make it Patriotic. If anyone knows of any studies that show if it effective against terrorism or not, I would love to see them. Information should be free but not freely used against honest citizens.
