This is crap. Councilman did more than store emails. He gave away free email accounts, then he spied on those who got emails from Amazon.com. The dude argued that because the emails went into storage on his server for even a second that he wasn't wiretapping. The judge agreed. On appeal, both the Justice Department and the EFF wrote in to say that counts as wiretapping. Let me repeat: in this case the EFF and the Justice Department agreed the dude was wiretapping. The whole rest of the piece falls apart if you know anything about the case. This is typical of the WSJ's opinion page -- which holds to NONE of the standards of its news pages.
