I will just add that I don't know if it is clear, but there are statutory obligations to undertake investigations, in which case these forensic tools are required, but before they are used in the collection of any personal information, a warrant is required from a judicial standpoint, so there is a very high threshold before these instruments are utilized. It is not taken lightly. Obviously, there are legal parameters that must be respected, including the Privacy Act, the governing legislation, as well as judicial authorization relating to a warrant. The threshold is high.
