Yes, that's the official reason, but I can't help but think they're killing two birds here...

Tell that to the dissidents in various oppressed countries who had info turned over by Google... (or maybe it was Yahoo, unsure)
And I think AsherO is right.

That would be proof that they do release such info when required by law. They don't operate in China because they don't want to comply with Chinese law.

I ain't no lawyer, but I would imagine that even a private company has to follow a subpoena.

I received the subpoena email and actually called the lawyer for AA !
He said that people were sending emails that looked like they were from AA
and asking for info then signing in and stealing points
AA was trying to figure out how these crooks got the lists of AA mileage account holders
so they subpoenaed gmail and gmail forwarded it to all the users with the lawyers private
phone line address etc... it was a harassment tactic!
He said all they asked for was some of google's search algorithms to find how the guys hacked it
That is what he said I don't know if it was true
P.s. In the attachment is a list of all email addresses subpoenaed

I'm confused... what happened exactly?

Also, is it just me, or is there a heavy preponderance of ppl from the Tribe in the list?
