Late yesterday, when most U.S. main streamer news sources focused only on more tornadoes in Oklahoma, U.S. District Court Judge, Susan Illston, ordered Google to hand over customer data to the Federal Bureau of Investigation!

The San Francisco court judge made the ruling after reading classified letters from FBI bosses.  The FBI says it does not need a judge’s order to conduct warrantless data gathering, called National Security Letters (NSL).

The NSL affects internet companies and communications/cell phone companies.

By the way, Judge Illston is leaving her job in July.
