Only if you’re constantly doing stuff that would make your browser history evidence of a crime. Taking out the trash is legal, unless there’s bloody gloves from where you murdered somebody in there, then its destruction of evidence.

Or if you are falsely implicated in a crime and a malicious prosecutor wants to kick you around.

I have seen it happen. Seen it ruin lives.

Well yeah, there’s lots of normal every day stuff that if you do it KNOWING you’re destroying criminal evidence becomes illegal.

I would invite to read an interesting article posted yesterday that states that "60 percent of new nonviolent, non-drug offenses lacked a criminal-intent requirement adequate to protect Americans who engaged in conduct that they did not know was illegal or otherwise wrongful from unjust criminal punishment."

It also indicated that "There are at least 5,000 federal criminal laws, with 10,000-300,000 regulations that can be enforced criminally."

That's stupid. How many people are arrested and not tried or found not guilty of a crime in the US. With this you have an end around where you don't even have to nail someone with an initial crime. Just deleting browser history. If you don't think something like that could happen, see what the IRS, ATF and OSHA did someone who was trying to start a PAC.
