Texas Gov. Rick Perry has signed a bill giving Texans more privacy over their inboxes. The law shields residents of the Lone Star State from snooping by state and local law enforcement without a warrant. The bill’s amendment was written by Jonathan Stickland, a 29-year-old Republican who represents an area between Dallas and Ft. Worth. In March 2013, the Department of Justice acknowledged in a Congressional hearing that this distinction no longer makes sense and the DOJ would support revisions to ECPA.”]
