You might recall that I posted a story about the US Government wanting data from Microsoft servers located in Ireland. Apparently, Microsoft has said to use a Glee reference “hell to the no:”
“Microsoft will not be turning over the email and plans to appeal,” a Microsoft statement notes. “Everyone agrees this case can and will proceed to the appeals court. This is simply about finding the appropriate procedure for that to happen.”
This is good because I was always under the impression that you cannot serve warrants to search property in other countries. But I am a computer nerd and not a lawyer. Thus I will be watching with interest as to what the outcome of this case is as it has far reaching implications.
