US Grants Itself the Right to Demand Online Data Stored Overseas

“Internet service providers are now obliged to turn over customer emails and other digital content demanded by the US government through search warrants even when the information is stored overseas.   Basically, the United States can now bypass individual laws given by the world’s governments and any efforts to safeguard information from the prying eyes of the NSA by storing data outside the United States.  The reasoning behind this decision is that it would just take too long for US agencies to coordinate efforts with foreign governments to obtain the desired data.  The decision comes as Microsoft challenged a warrant allowing a search of content of email stored overseas.”
