Should the DEA be able to get medical records via subpoena, or is a warrant necessary?  That's the question the 5th Circuit is going to have to answer.  And while the issue is definitely of interest to the telemedicine crowd, it certainly raises privacy concerns, especially if those medical records are yours or mine.

Do you trust the federal government not to abuse this sort of power?  Once upon a time I did, but not so much anymore.
