The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York issued a warrant late last year to obtain customer data from Microsoft. That customer’s data was located in a data center overseas in Ireland. Microsoft is challenging the warrant, and Apple and Cisco, AT&T, Verizon, and EFF have filed amicus briefs in the case.
Coming on the heels of the Supreme Court’s decision in Riley the case raises compelling issues. Can the U.S. issue warrants for searches outside the United States? How do we reconcile the Fourth Amendment requirements for searches? Shouldn’t the government obtain the data they want through existing Mutual Legal Assistance Treaties (“MLATs”), or establish a new international convention that addresses these requests?
Join us for a breakfast to hear from experts about the case and the implications for the global Internet and the cloud, citizens around the world, and businesses.
