Chief Judge Robert Morin of the Superior Court of DC has said the Department of Justice can follow through on a search warrant for web hosting company DreamHost's disruptj20.org site. Mr Morin had also ruled that the government must minimise data collected on innocent visitors to the site and any third parties that are involved with the site. Prior to the ruling, DreamHost made the search warrant public and estimated that it involved 1.3 million visitors' IP data and other information that could qualify as a violation of the Privacy Protection Act. Outside the courtroom a lawyer for DreamHost, Raymond Aghaian, said despite the search warrant limiting review to data that appears to violate riot criminal codes, the government being allowed to "see that information and identify who these political dissidents are is problematic".
