[governance] Fwd: PRISM - is it about the territorial location of data or its legal ownership

[James S. Tyre]

My WAG was on the right track, but wrong.

In each of the two newer motions, FISC issued an Order which, among other things, directed the Government to respond by yesterday as to whether there was anything classified in the motions, or otherwise shouldn't be made public.  In each case, yesterday the government said (in effect) no prob, make it public.  And so, in each case FISC did so today.
