So a govt agency does something illegal. To be honest, im not thrilled. They seem to be acting against the laws they claim to uphold all the time.
Do they get punished? Are they put under extra monitoring now?
This is not a democracy people, this is not "trias politica". Police brutality rampant, this merely being one more case. These court rulings seem rather useless, when the same govt keeps illegal torture prisons (Guatanamo) open, where people's lives are ruined without due process.

The court could also have found no problem with these searches. Now that they did take issue with it if the searches would continue then yes, that would be illegal.
