Granick said that, even if Jason Chen is under investigation for receipt of stolen property, the government has no right to issue a search warrant, because California law includes exceptions for journalists who are in receipt of information from sources.

I don’t get this argument that journalists are immune from all investigations themselves simply because Shield Law protects them from having to reveal their sources.

I really expected more from the organization which has spent countless hours arguing that information is not property.

In full disclosure, I am a member and donor to the EFF.
