Norwegian Police, Seeking Info On 2 Bloggers, Take Data From 7,000 Accounts

Posted by Soulskill on from the orders-of-magnitude dept.

xiando writes "Norwegian police were asked by officials in Italy to get personal information about two bloggers who were using a server in Oslo. The police decided the best thing to do would be to take the server's hard drive, along with personal information from about 7,000 other users (Google translation of Norwegian original). Other ISPs say this is standard operating procedure in Norway these days."
