Those analogs are covered under exigent circumstances. But there is no imminent danger attached to a hacking case. This feels more like "somebody stole my briefcase, which is justification to search my home without a warrant".
- zmgsabst 3y agoPerhaps less contrived: Police observed a drug dealer drop off a package in my bush, then someone else take it later — so they can search my house, just in case. Traditionally, searching your house would require a warrant based on those events… and likely showing more of a nexus, that you were involved.
