Couldn't Thinkpenguin get in trouble for destroying evidence?
The US government is legally unable to access one's documents without
probable cause, or a warrant. The federal government has gotten so out of
hand that they have and will try to get the data without either of those.
The Fourth Amendment:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and
effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated,
and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or
affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the
persons or things to be seized.
>The issue about governments requesting data about the user...
Thinkpenguin could refuse to turn over data without a warrant. That is the
responsible thing to do.
Maybe this could be solved by locating the data-center overseas.
Perhaps the south pole would be a good place. ;)
