Maybe you should define the "they" you're speaking of? I've noticed a disturbing trend on the internet with this case specifically. Google did not OPT to give this data to Viacom. They were ordered to by the U.S. Government. Instead of accusing Google of somehow now being evil, maybe we should be complaining about a court system that doesn't understand technology at all. Until the courts have a grasp of technology, we will continue to see these overreaching orders on a regular basis. The courts just don't know how to be more specific, so they grant access to everything.
