Microsoft legal counsel Brad Smith said to the press that he believes that Microsoft has a “clear right” under the First Amendment to reveal just what data the government is requesting about users. It has also been reported that Google has concluded the same. All of this over the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
The two corporate giants plan to hash it out with the U.S. Government by filing suits.
Roy Carroll reported, “Microsoft’s general counsel, Brad Smith, made the announcement in a corporate blog post which complained of the government’s “continued unwillingness” to let it publish information about FISA requests.
Each company filed a suit in June arguing that they should be allowed to state the details under the first amendment, which guarantees freedom of speech, and in the process defend corporate reputations battered by Edward Snowden’s revelations. Critics accused the companies of collaborating in the snooping.
”On six occasions in recent weeks we agreed with the department of justice to extend the government’s deadline to reply to these lawsuits. We hoped that these discussions would lead to an agreement acceptable to all,” Smith wrote.
The negotiations failed, he wrote, so Google and Microsoft were going to court. He did not specify when, or to which court.”[1]
