- vorpalhex 7y agoThat's them basically saying, "Even if turns out we could have fought that request in court and won, we still don't want to get sued, so we want the benefit of the doubt for complying with any and all requests". That's an unfortunate bit of general lack of company accountability to users instead of shareholders, and until we establish stronger digital rights for consumers, won't change, whether it's your ring footage or Grandma's chili recipe in google drive.
