Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

The Fourth Amendment and the expectation of privacy is continually being tested and evaluated by the Supreme Court, and in particular how it relates to technology. Courts have long allowed warrantless searches of cell phones in connection with arrest claiming the need to protect officers and prevent destruction of evidence. In 2014 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Riley v. California unanimously rules that the police need warrants to search the cellphones they arrest. This ruling may extend to tablets and laptops. This ruling is one of the first computer-search cases and is path-breaking. Opinion by the justices indicated that just because people can now carry such extensive and personal information, doesn't not make it any less worthy of protection of privacy. In regard to the destruction of evidence, police can take safety measures such as removing a battery or turning a phone off and hold the phone until a warrant can be obtained.
