Yes...I'm curious to see how 'things stored in the cloud' will eventually work out with the 4th/5th amendment protections. Seems most of the current law applies to them as electronic communications, but I think they are becoming more and more like a safe deposit box, which I think has fared a bit better. It's unfortunate that it will likely take a few guinea pigs with a lot of money and the right type of case to force the judicial system to work this out. Of course, the prudent criminal would encrypt anything, using non-backdoored encryption, before it left his/her control thus making LEO/Government access to their cloud storage ineffective.
