Got anything "incriminating" in your Gmail account?

[Northcode]

In a lawsuit brought by the Federal Trade Commission, a subpoena is sent to Google for the complete contents of a Gmail account, including deleted e-mail messages. U.S. Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Laporte in San Francisco ruled on Jan. 31 and grants subpoena and orders that all e-mail messages, including deleted ones, be divulged.

This is unrelated to the Department of Justice's own subpoena to Google for search terms and excerpts from its search database.

Isn't this invasion of privacy?
I cant really see people being o.k with the government screening their emails.
Besides, are they really that desperate for entertainment or do they just have a lot of money to waste on crap?

Naaa, not argueing anymore. No point in it with the shrub rating at 29% and sinking.

As for a court order, if it were me gathering the data, I'd just get a little twitch in my mouse finger and delete it all, then say ooops.

Ya got to wonder though, about the IQ of some of our elected offficials, Would anyone really be stupid enough to say anything in an e-mail that can be used against you? Well, some would, and deserve what they get, but no terrorist would. Besides, all this idiocy works in our favor. In the end, people are going to get fed up enough with politics in general and trim back the fat to where it belongs, printing money and filling potholes, and damn little else. Even slothful americans can get fed up with it eventually.

Cool, I can take down so many spammers now

OT:

I keep recieving mp3 files from some guy I don't know. There is no heading, nor any text in the message, only a single mp3 file in each one. I don't open them though.
