BREAKING: Supreme Court agrees to hear battle between U.S. and Microsoft over email privacy

Having trouble viewing this email? | View it in your browser   The Microsoft case dates back to 2013, when U.S. prosecutors demanded the Internet giant turn over emails linked to a drug-trafficking case. The emails were stored only on Microsoft servers in Ireland. Microsoft turned over information it had stored in the United States but sued to block the warrant, saying U.S. law enforcement couldn't seize evidence held in another country. It warned that if it was forced to do so, foreign governments could force U.S. companies to turn over evidence stored here.
