The damn article was posted yesterday. Is it normal to lock comments so quickly CBC? Or did you not like 1200+ participants unless they all parroted the "correct" POV?

regardless of who the culpable party may ultimately be determined in this legal tangle, the very idea that by using something called an "Anton Pillar order" (?), a group of techies, a bailiff, and a a hostile lawyer can walk into a man's home without notice, and force him to answer questions for the better part of a day while his home is being searched strikes me as being contrary to all we should be able to expect from that entity we vaguely understand as "justice."

BINGO.
