Martin (the lawyer) said one of the FBI officials sat down at the (library) computer Ahmed used and, utilizing the history function of the computer, viewed and made a record of the Web pages and e-mail addresses that had been accessed by Ahmed.
Ok. Umm. I don't know how to explain this, but viewing the history on a computer is what everyone does. If the library didn't use some administrative setting to flush the history and cookies between users, then all history is fair game. This is not a violation of privacy by the government. This is a function of people who are too stupid to delete their history, and a position of the library that the history and cookies are not important enough to delete between users.
Kids don't understand the Internet, and now lawyers, and worse still, accused terrorists don't understand how the Internet works. Browser history, cookies and temp files are the same as garbage; again, IANAL, but legally, they should be the same as garbage.
You need to watch what the hell you're doing on the Internet. And If you don't log out of your email and someone else is able to access your mail, it's not their fault that you are an idiot. And it's not their fault that read your mail. Or that I used your account to send threatening messages to George Clooney. Damn your handsomeness, George Clooney.
