Apple, Microsoft, Skype, AOL, Google, YouTube (pre-Goog) - all forced by secret courts to hand your data over to the US Government. I really hope that people remember this next time they say, or hear, something like “You can’t trust X-Company - they’ll just hand your data over to the feds.”

Yes - they will. ALL of them. After threats, secrecy, fines, subversion, and force; all at the hands of those that we elected into office.
