<p>A California court has <a href="http://wikileaks.org/wiki/Gmail_subpoena_for_the_identities_of_journalists_running_the_corruption_busting_TCI_Journal%2C_28_Aug_2009" title="Gmail subpoena for the identities of journalists running the corruption busting TCI Journal, 28 Aug 2009">issued a subpoena</a> demanding Google reveal the IP addresses of journalists writing for a corruption busting journal from the Caribbean. [...]</p> <p>According to the notifying letter from Google to the Journal, Google intends to hand over the requested records in just over two weeks, without any defense, and states that the Journal may file a counter-motion with the Santa-Clara court itself. [...]</p> <p>Google has elected to keep extensive, non-anoymized records on its users, but not defend these records from disclosure. This combination, together with inequitable access to justice in Californian courts, is toxic.</p>
