    Police need warrants to get info from Internet service providers, Supreme Court says

    The Supreme Court of Canada says police need a search warrant to get information from Internet service providers about their subscribers' identities when they are under investigation.

    The high court's landmark 8-0 ruling on online privacy issues comes in the appeal of a Saskatchewan man facing child pornography charges.

    That's a good idea, Canada is far more reasonable with these kinds of rulings than the United States. Police should have to be required to get warrants and go through due process of any kind of privacy matter.
