    What does this even mean? When you agree to the TOSs, you accept them. If you want real privacy, you shouldn't use them. If you're naive enough to believe that these providers are there to protect you? Laughable.

    I agree with you but I think "ordering" (just a more realistic term for "asking") is a show. I'll betcha' they already have what they want but cannot use it unless they can claim to have acquired it by ... how shall I say ..... Democratic means. I think you know what I mean.

    Laughable is right.

    Terrible precedent would be handing it over without a warrant. I see no issue with a valid warrant. No different than searching a home computer with a valid warrant.

    THREAD LOCKED - Rule 11 -

    This thread was locked because the OP did not contain a link to a valid news source which is required for threads in Current Events, did not have the minimum of three sentences of elaboration, and did not set the basis for respectful debate.
