Rackspace
response to PRISM
My immediate thought is that there's one big
loophole here: National Security Letters. They aren't warrants or anything close
to them. And if Rackspace had received one, the usual terms are that they can't
disclose that they'd received one so of course they can't say they've received
any. I'm afraid my attitude remains that if the government had never issued
blanket requests and had no intention of doing so, they wouldn't need to fight
so hard to a) retain the ability to issue them and b) block any inquiry into
whether or not they had been issuing them. I still remember the arguments that
amounted to "The plaintiff can't already prove the charges, therefore the
plaintiff isn't even allowed to get into court.". If only that were true,
because if it was SCO would've been out of luck from day 1, IV would be shut
down and far too many other annoying lawsuits wouldn't even have made it past
filing before being dismissed for lack of standing. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Indeed the details matter, so why do they give us a lot of
tedious nitpicking over the meaning
and location of
"servers" when the ppt
slide they quoted has as its top item (You should use both)
Upstream *
Collection of communications on fiber cables as data flows past, aka
Room 641
and all its as
yet undisclosed brethren, there are four direct line slurping operations
identified
on that slide, only two named.
