The FBI served the NSL back in 2004 when Nicholas Merrill owned and operated Calyx Internet Access, a small ISP with about 200 customers. After the judge found in favor of Merrill and not the government, Merrill said, "For more than a decade, the FBI has fought tooth and nail in order to prevent me from speaking freely about the NSL I received. Judge Marrero's decision vindicates the public's right to know how the FBI uses warrantless surveillance to peer into our digital lives. I hope today's victory will finally allow Americans to engage in an informed debate about proper the scope of the government's warrantless surveillance powers."To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here Read More   WHITE PAPER: Panduit Corp.   Magic Quadrant for Data Center Infrastructure This new Gartner report reviews 15 vendors of Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) solutions.
