The House of Representatives has unanimously approved the Email Privacy Act. It would require law enforcement to obtain a warrant before compelling third-party service providers to surrender their customers’ email and text content. The measure goes to the Senate, where it has bipartisan support. The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., says it represents significant reform. It establishes a standard that embodies the principles of the Fourth Amendment (which prohibits unreasonable searches) “It is time for the Senate to act without delay,” Sen. Leahy says.”]
