So if such a warrant will be issued Google absolutely can deliver.
- pilif 15y agoThe FBI apparently cares if they specifically asked for the users password. The article was specifically listing the users password amongst the items that were requested by the FBI, so my comment was about the password too. Most of the other data they were requesting can easily be produced by Google - sure. I'm not denying that at all. I'm just saying that the (original, as set by the user in question) password is probably not retrievable and I'm also saying that the FBI should know that.
- vrotaru 15y agoQuite. For whatever reason I was under the impression that the demanded information was on Google servers.
- tsotha 15y agoI agree, the password should be hashed and should be unrecoverable. That may or may not actually be true, however. It may be the FBI intends to try the password elsewhere. Lots of people use the same password across multiple accounts of various different types. Or maybe they intend to submit it as evidence if it's something like "masterpimp"

- vrotaru 15y agoI used SMS as a placeholder for anything hold on Google servers.
