This isn't as simple a case a many would believe. The court order is not against the data in Ireland, it's against the company in the US. It is not the same as ordering Microsoft to turn over data in a safe deposit box in Ireland, because the data, in this case, can be accessed without going to Ireland. The issues in this are purely political, with both sides working towards something that is not really to the benefit of the average person. One side wants the US to govern the entire world, the other side wants to make international corporations sovereign in their own right. There are no good guys, there are no bad guys, there's only greed and corruption on all sides.
