If you’re not a globalist then wouldn’t you agree that Nebraska shouldn’t have jurisdiction to subpoena companies that aren’t incorporated in Nebraska? Your argument seems pro globalism

There are soooo many reasons why using state lines cannot protect you from a criminal case.

Firstly, Facebook clearly operates in Nebraska, and is thus subject to its jurisdiction.

Incorporation (in Delaware) is for corporate covernance, not for dodging local laws.

No, Nebraska is part of the United States.

But Facebook isn’t incorporated in Nebraska

[cato_the_elder]

Yes, but the people in question are from Nebraska.

But their data isn't in Nebraska.

If a person is accused of a crime in Georgia, and the person had a safe deposit box in Maine, the Maine bank doesn't have to immediately give Georgia police their possessions.

Facebook has data centers in Nebraska, so it's possible that their data is in Nebraska.

But even if not, because Facebook has a physical presence in Nebraska, it is subject to Nebraska law.
