Also, police have recently reversed the long-standing practice of seeing if companies' (particularly those that operate primarily online) have material that matches evidence. Now they ask for all material and see if they have any crimes that match, or ask for all information on individuals and see if they can find crimes. These last two are a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment and amount to the police searching your house to make sure you aren't guilty of anything.
