Demanding identification without probable cause was unconstitutional and still should be. But I can imagine a secret warrant sometimes is justifiable. I don't know if this law properly restricts secret warrants but it should. <br /> <br />This also brings up the weakening of the Freedom of Information Act. Once an investigation is closed we should be able to see what information the government collected on us. Government secrecy hides corruption, incompetence, and abuse.
