Ep. 8: The first warrant is issued for a computer search

Long before we all knew how to use Incognito mode or clear a search history, someone had to be the first person to do something illegal on a computer. And in 1971, that first person was caught after the very first warrant for a computer search was executed. This week, Faith talks with Jessi Soler about this momentous occasion, what it means for internet privacy now, and why that art dealer thought using his son's iPad to search body disposal techniques was a good idea.
