You are not being paranoid enough

Andres Salomon talks about having his computer siezed: "You are not being paranoid enough. The FBI managed to get a search warrant based on logs from a firewall, that showed my IP only connecting, not even logging in, hours after news of the cracking had appeared on news sites. If they can get a search warrant this easily, your data is not safe, sitting on your hard drive. For the past two months I've been living in this dorm, I locked my doors, securified my boxes, and backed up my essential things. I never even imagined the federal government would just let themselves in and take it."
