I live in Florida. Went to jail for a year. Was on probation for 4 years from 2008-2011. I had to wear an ankle monitor the whole time. I was NOT allowed to use a computer for Any reason, even though this was the only way I could try to find employment.
Do you think there is any recourse at this time?

In reply to Mike. The court system moves at its own pace, slow and slower. Unless you are being convicted that is. That is the current state of justice in America.

In reply to Florida Action Committee. You can add this recent West Virginia ruling to the rest of the pile. I know people here are getting impatient, but at least in this waiting period, other court rulings are giving us more ammunition for ours.

I believe that politicians and cops have become nothing less than ‘virtual peeping toms’. Consider that our right to the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness includes dating, relationships, sex and love. When one is required to turn over to the State user names and other personal information for social media and mobile apps, including those used for adult-to-adult intimacy purposes, it vitually opens our most intimate activities and bedroom doors wide open to government voyeurs, a/k/a perverts. How can one maintain the right to privacy in relationships, including sex with other ADULTS, when our most intimate activities are being monitored by nanny State? I believe it is called “stalking”, which is a felony in many states. Free speech includes the right to conduct one’s lawful “affairs of the heart” in private and away from prying eyes. The insanity must stop…so much is at stake if we do not start pulling back on the reigns of the State and turning the tide. What is happening in Florida would make even the notorius Greek tyrant, Draco, blush! We can only hope and pray that Florida’s ultra conservative judiciary takes a hint from recent court decisions, including SCOTUS’ refusal to hear certain cases, get some cajones and start reversing all of this nonsense.

In reply to Mike. We are waiting for an order from the Judge in the Northern District of Florida.

Here’s another court case stricking down a violation of 1st amendment rights.

Where’s the case for our internet identifiers at now?
