Yes, but almost every provider is going to tell you up front that they will comply with requests from the government. If they then do that, there's no violation of trust.


Even cperciva notes that. He even says he might well turn over information without making it a knock-down/drag-out fight, if he believes the request is reasonable. And its all in his ToS.

FWIW I agree completely with that viewpoint, so this is not a criticism.
