                          American privacy rights just got a little stronger. The Supreme Court has limited the use of “geofence” search warrants in a major legal ruling that is likely to have broad ramifications for individuals and law enforcement officers.

                              Install Ventoy once, then simply copy ISO files to your USB drive. It supports Windows, Linux, Secure Boot, persistence, and many rescue and diagnostic tools.
