  No chance the EFF is pushing one specific extremist agenda. I'm sure they are doing their best to give a neutral unbiased description. EDIT: For the downvoters, its like trusting peta for a neutral stance on animal welfare on a farm.

    The EFF is not correctly describing the Rule 41 change. The amendment gives magistrate judges the same power that Article 3 judges already have. Nor is the EFF's position reasonable - suppose you want to search a computer in an unknown jurisdiction, where the location of the computer has been obscured by Tor. What's the alternative to allowing magistrate judges to issue warrants outside of their jurisdictions? Requiring warrants for every jurisdiction that the target computer might be within?
