Changes to search policy of laptops entering US borders

ccording to the Wall Street Journal, searches of laptops and other electronic devices belonging to travelers that are entering the United States will continue with just a few small changes.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said that they'll be monitoring the searches more closely and that they'll strive to return the devices faster (the limit will be 5 days, except for Immigration and Custom searches that are limited to 30 days).

There are many privacy advocates who are still not satisfied with the policy and are the opinion that these changes haven't touched the most important issue - that these searches are performed without standards.
