      Searches and warrants are nothing new, except in the context of phones and other electronic devices. Are you suggesting that should be immune to something that has been around for centuries?

      There is no actual logic to having time windows to access confiscated devices that are not ever going to be returned. Anything that’s not technology is completely unaffected by that silliness.

      There’s no world where a legally confiscated physical object is held to the same standard.
