Amazon Vows To Fight Government Requests For Data
itwbennett writes "Speaking at a cloud panel discussion hosted by Reuters on Wednesday, Terry Wise, head of global partner ecosystem for Amazon Web Services, explained how the company handles government requests for data stored on Amazon's cloud: 'If a U.S. entity is serving us with a legally binding subpoena, we contact our customer and work with that customer to fight the subpoena.' But Wise's best advice to customers is to encrypt their data: 'If the data is encrypted, all we'd be handing over would be the cypher text,' he said."
I can foresee a time when it won't be safe to even talk among ourselves. We'll need to send encrypted text messages to the person next to us.

It's "smelt", not "smelled". Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!
Once again we prove the principle, Sunlight is the best disinfection. These guys, the NSA and the big internet companies, were happy to share your data UNTIL the light was shone on them. Then they scattered like cockroaches when you turn the lights on.
