no, you said it was "unlikely"

all this aside, how about some sympathy for innocents caught up in this unconstitutional dragnet? does the 4th amendment even exist anymore once the feds get involved?

What are we talking about here? The article about the FBI seizing $900K from a safe deposit box? Or Australian police arresting the producer of a YouTube comedian? I said, with respect to the second, that LECC was unlikely to investigate while the criminal case was still pending. That has absolutely nothing to do with "the 4th amendment" – the US constitution does not apply in Australia.
