- dublinben 10y agoIt doesn't even appear that this ruling took Ireland's laws into consideration. If this summary is accurate, then the appeals court merely ruled that a domestic warrant could not be used to retrieve foreign materials. The proper procedure here is to work through the State Department to get a warrant in Irish court. Presumably they didn't do that because they knew it would be futile, in light of Ireland's data protection laws.
