Microsoft Protests Order to Disclose Email Stored Abroad
(NY Times): http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/11/technology/microsoft-protests-order-for-email-stored-abroad.html
"Microsoft is challenging the authority of federal prosecutors to force
the giant technology company to hand over a customer's email stored in
a data center in Ireland. The objection is believed to be the first
time a corporation has challenged a domestic search warrant seeking
digital information overseas. The case has attracted the concern of
privacy groups and major United States technology companies, which are
already under pressure from foreign governments worried that the
personal data of their citizens is not adequately protected in the
data centers of American companies."
