Could someone help decode this? "covered entities must provide responsive, intelligible information or data, or appropriate technical assistance to a goverment pursuant to a court order." I assume that this includes secret FISA orders, but what's with the language about "a government"? Could this be construed to include non-American governments? (i.e. Five Eyes?) Or is that a term of art?
