Yea, the case is going the defendants way. I understand the idea that if a tech is going through your computer and stumbles upon evidence of a crime that they should be required to report it.<p>But I don&#x27;t understand finding evidence in hidden sectors of the hard drive (that&#x27;s far from stumbling across it). And when the FBI pays for evidence, it should have been thrown out right there.

There&#x27;s a lot more to the story than the headline. The judge has made a number of rulings, most of which are in favor of the defense.<p>People should read the article rather than reacting to just the headline.

The only image &quot;found&quot; was a thumbnail from a known anti child abuse video (and not pornographic in nature).
