A far-reaching bill that would require the government to obtain a warrant to search through people's emails and other online communications now has majority support in the U.S. House of Representatives. The Email Privacy Act, introduced by Reps. Jared Polis (D-Colo) and Kevin Yoder (R-Kans.), now has 218 co-sponsors -- the number needed for the bill to pass if it is brought up for a vote in the House.
