Kenneth Starr's investigation brought to light uncertainties with regard to the secrecy requirement for federal grand juries. Rule 6(e) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure mandates that what occurs before a grand jury must remain secret. However, courts have been unable to resolve such basic question as what constitutes coming before a grand jury, how leaks may be proven, or even why secrecy is necessary. Renewed debate on these questions is called for.

The Supreme Court has held that an individual relinquishes any Fourth Amendment interest in information that he or she voluntarily discloses to a third party. Known as the "Third Party Doctrine," this controversial rule is increasingly problematic in an age where a large proportion of personal communications and transactions are carried out over the Internet. Internet users expose virtually all of the information they generate online-e-mails, web-surfing histories, search terms, and more-to online service providers.
