On my ride home today I was listening to a security podcast that had a
lawyer from the EFF on as a guest.  They discussed search and seizure laws
and your rights on using encryption technologies.  They discussed Amendment
IV and Amendment V issues.

It was PaulDotCom Episode 243 there's a link to the video version of the
show on the show's wiki page.
