So let me get this straight. If my web application is running on American servers. I go to secret court, to get issued a secret search warrant. If its not an American server I just get hacked.

I'm sorry but this really sounds like Oppressive Police State stuff.

Does this mean foreign governments are free to hack US servers if they believe any of their foreign laws have been broken?
