    companies in which “The Court therefore held that law enforcement agencies do not need a warrant to install what is called a "pen register" on a telephone account that records and reports the numbers called and the duration of the calls, but not the content of the conversations” (Barnett). The NSA reason the constitutionality of their whole operations in the basis of the two ruling combined: “The court [reasoning] that the NSA data collection orders [is] constitutional because all they collect is the very information in which Smith tells us that telephone consumers have no reasonable expectation of privacy under Katz” (Barnett).

Leon notes that although the Smith V. Maryland case ruled that Smith had no reasonable expectation of privacy, time has changed along with technology. The misconception of these cases is problematic as now everyone is a suspect. In the end, “every American is to be treated the way Michael Lee Smith was treated in Smith v. Maryland.

    Girl used to mean small boy or girl. The word “girl” was not initially used to refer to a specific gender. It used to mean “child” or “young person” regardless of the gender. Obviously, our language has changed and now girl is gender specific and sometimes age specific. This evolution can often be refered to as slang. Slang is often derived from old words with new meanings or completely new words with new meanings. Because of its unstructured nature, many linguists believe that slang is…

    Hi Willem, I agree with your response that the court’s decision in favor of Wrench LLC was correct. Taco bell made it clear that they were interested in using the concepts created by Wrench LLC. They approached the company, because they liked the idea of the Psycho Chihuahua, and wanted to use it in their ads. As you said they even accepted hats, stickers, and t-shirts with the Taco Bell Logo and the Psycho Chihuahua on them. Their actions made it seem as if they were going to pay for the…

    Hmmmm, click. Tap tap. Click. Click click clack. Sigh. Why am I writing again—click click tap. click clack taaaa-pp. As a person who has a vendetta against writing, the sounds of the keyboard distract me. My unedited writing turns to gibberish because, for example, no one can say, “j f s s ,“ in the rhythm of which I just typed does not sound amazing.

    What do you do when you think you’re being followed by some creepy old guy at 1 in the morning, and your manager has disappeared off the face of the planet? Find the nearest customer and pretend they’re your best friend, apparently. That’s exactly what Jay did, as she watched the shadow trail her from the corner of her eye. Creepy old guys were a normal part of working the overnight shift at a 24-hour convenience store, but usually they were only after a pack of crisps or a carton of beer,…
