Submission + - Lawyers Seek To Block Twitter Data Handover (eweekeurope.co.uk)
jhernik writes: Twitter’s lawyers are trying to block US authorities from accessing personal data as part of a WikiLeaks probe
Lawyers on Friday asked a US judge to overturn a ruling from earlier this month, forcing Twitter to hand over account details to the US Department of Justice, in a case related to the US federal government’s ongoing investigation of Wikileaks.
The appeal (PDF) seeks to overturn a ruling that would give the US government access to Twitter account details for three users who had contact with Wikileaks. The government also wants Twitter to provide information on Wikileaks founder Julian Assange and on Bradley Manning, a US Army private charged with providing data to Wikileaks.
