Microsoft Corporation v. United States of America is a complaint[1] for declaratory judgment action filed in the U.S. District Court in Seattle, Washington.
Complaint
Microsoft alleges that it has the right to inform customers when the United States government obtains a warrant to read their emails or access their information in the cloud.[2] The company alleges that it is unconstitutional “to force the company to remain silent and not inform customers when their cloud data has been searched or inspected by authorities.”[3]
