Microsoft battles US over 'drug' emails

Microsoft is returning to court to continue its fight against the US government's demand that it hand over emails stored at an Irish data centre.

The messages involved are alleged to contain details of narcotics sales.

In 2014, a court ruled in favour of the government's claim that because it had jurisdiction over the US-based company, it could force it to hand over data it controlled, even if stored abroad.

But Microsoft suggests that would put it in breach of privacy laws.
