If there's no question someone killed your dog, then you don't need to read what's in the phone, do you? There's a point to your analogy.

- BWStearns 11y agoOh yeah, sorry. Distinguishing between premeditation or not in order to charge and sentence properly. Without premeditation there may be no crime at all. I did not spell that out well and only touched directly on it in the first post. The point is that it's evidence and not really different than if I wrote it in my dead tree diary. I'm hobbled a bit here because I'm trying to make the very unsexy point that most electronic things are not unique because they're electronic (kinda like how "doing it on a computer" shouldn't be sufficiently novel to justify patent protection). The extent to which "devices becomes more and more an extension of the brain" is at the moment not far enough to justify unique treatment to your iOS notes.
