Google: the subpoena [priv] Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2006 09:08:50 -0500 From: C Simpson <simpson@private> To: Declan McCullagh <declan@private> Hello Declan -- What is the policy of the search engine companies concerning compliance with subpoenas (called by whatever name) from governments other than that of the United States? For example, if Google service to Mexico is physcally located in the US, will Google comply with an order from a Mexican court for records gathered in Mexico? What if part of the service infrastructure (record gathering and storage infrastructure) is physically within Mexican jurisdiction? The Chinese case may be particularly interesting in this regard....
