Not quite the right thing: the subpoena is too broad.
This is very typical for law enforcement everywhere these days. Luckily SparkFun was diligent enough to negotiate it down to relevant information, but it the "gimme all your data" attitude is a fundamental problem. This also extend to seizures ("gimme all your servers", not just the ones involved). The courts should never allow this, so although this is the proper process, it is failing. There's no point in insisting law enforcement goes through the proper channels if those proper channels don't do their job properly.
