Tech Companies Fight Back After Years of Being Deluged With Secret FBI Requests
Internet companies have been waging a little-known war with the federal government over how much information companies are obligated to hand over about customers during national security investigations
Hasnain says:
"The FBI’s decision to ask companies for everything and let them figure out what they’re required to turn over has had the effect of potentially putting smaller companies with fewer resources at a disadvantage, say national security attorneys. Without expensive legal representation and a familiarity with the law, companies might turn over more content than is necessary."
