A U.S. federal court judge has upheld a warrant requiring Microsoft to give the Justice Department copies of e-mails stored at a data center in Ireland. Microsoft has contested the subpoena since receiving it in December 2013. Microsoft general counsel Brad Smith said in a statement July 31 that the company will continue to fight the warrant. AT&T, Cisco and Verizon have publicly disagreed with the Obama administration’s attempt to access data stored overseas, filing amicus briefs in support of Microsoft. The European Commission has said it expects any company that does business inside Europe and works with Europeans’ data to comply with EU privacy laws.”]
