An arguments based on emotion. Meaning an argument that is entirely context-specific (and so not generalisable) and one which blithely ignores, or is ignorant of, the role of precedence in law.
I'll resist the temptation to go all Rumsfeldian on the 'possibly yet unknowns' tangent.

And if there turns out to be no evidence?
Isn't the court order having been sought at all based on speculation of there being something (or anything at all) to follow up on? It's a fishing expedition! And in at least two ways. And it is a game. One with long-lasting and far-reaching implications for just about every living soul on the planet--phone or no phone.
