#6Relevant excerpts:
Microsoft believes you own emails stored in the cloud, and that they have the same privacy protection as paper letters sent by mail...
The U.S. government can obtain emails only subject to the full legal protections of the Constitution's Fourth Amendment...
A search warrant cannot reach beyond U.S. shores...
[The US government] argues that your emails become the business records of a cloud provider. Because business records have a lower level of legal protection, the government claims that it can use its broader authority to reach emails stored anywhere in the world.

> your emails become the business records of a cloud provider
That is simply ridiculous. Email stored by a cloud provider isn't a business record of the provider any more than the contents of a physical letter stored in a rented mail box is a business record of the box provider.

#10Paywall? I'm out.
You might want to reconsider posting comments like that. You may think you're making a principled stand against the evils of paywalls (aside: how do you expect online publications to stay in business?) but in fact all you're doing is advertising the fact that you're either too lazy or too stupid to take the trivial steps required to get around one.
