In the case of Pollo vs. Constantino-David, 659 SCRA 189, October 18, 2011,
citing an American jurisprudence in the case of United States vs. Mark L.
Simons (206 F. 3d392 [4th Cir. 2000]), the U.S. Supreme Court declared that
the federal agency’s computer use policy foreclosed any inference of
reasonable expectation of privacy on the part of its employees. Though the
Court therein recognized that such policy did not, at the same time, erode the
respondent’s legitimate expectation of privacy in the office in which the
computer was installed, still, the warrantless search of the employee’s office
was upheld as valid because a government employer is entitled to conduct a
warrantless search pursuant to an investigation or work-related misconduct
provided the search is reasonable in its inception and scope. In that case, the
defendant
Simons, an employee of a division of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA),
was convicted of receiving and possessing materials containing child
pornography. Simons was provided with an office which he did not share with
anyone, and a computer with Internet access. The agency had instituted a
policy on computer use stating that employees were to use the Internet for
official government business only and that accessing unlawful material was
specifically prohibited. The policy also stated that users shall understand that
the agency will periodically audit, inspect, and/or monitor the user’s Internet
access as deemed appropriate. CIA agents instructed its contractor for the
management of the agency’s computer network, upon initial discovery of
prohibited internet activity originating from Simons’ computer, to conduct a
remote monitoring and examination of Simons’ computer. After confirming
that Simons had indeed downloaded pictures that were pornographic in
nature, all the files on the hard drive of Simons’ computer were copied from
remote work station. Days later, the contractor’s representative finally
entered Simons’ office, removed the original hard drive on Simons’ computer,
replaced it with a copy, and gave the original to the agency security officer.
Thereafter, the agency secured warrants and searched Simons’ office in the
evening when Simons was not around. The search team copied the contents
of Simons’ computer; computer diskettes; videotapes; and various
documents, including personal correspondence. At his trial, Simons moved to
suppress these evidence, arguing that the searches of his office and computer
violated his Fourth Amendment rights (regarding right against unreasonable
searches and seizures). After a hearing, the district court denied the motion
and Simons was found guilty as charged.
