Supreme Court: No Privacy on State Phones, Computers, Email

I blogged about a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision over at NASblog.org

Bringing a private laptop or wi-fi device to work (for private phone calls/emails) would be useless if your university (like mine) has a closed VPN -- software that allows you access to the institution's wireless.

Fortunately, most universities have some "Rule of Reason" but, as they used to say on Hill Street Blues:
"Hey, let's be careful out there!"
