Bullshit part 2

BTW, isn't this exactly akin to that article a couple weeks ago (can't find a link) about a guy who got busted by the cops with child porn, because his roomate let the police in the house, and his hard drive wasn't encrypted. His workstation even had a log on, but the police bypassed it. There argument was that since it wasn't locked (encrypted), it was assumed to be part of what they were allowed to see by entering the house.

So, the cops can assume access to anything that isn't explicitly secured, but a business man trying to find his way to a meeting can't use an open wifi network to Google it? I'm calling double standards on that one.
