Say you have a laptop. You went into work with said laptop thinking you were going to get caught up with some online college classes. You try to plug in and get online just to find out your lap top was blocked because the internet link you were on was a secure line. the internet watch dogs come and confiscate the computer and say they are going to search for anything that could be dangerous to the military. You tell them you were only trying to get some class work done. My question is, If they are looking for documents and viruses that could of been planted, do they have reasonable doubt to go into your personal information like bank records or privet videos and music?

You can expect the entirety of your computer to be searched.
