The import is about past lessons DOJ learned:1) In THE PAST, Trump Organization has allegedly withheld clearly responsive material under subpoena. 2) IN THE PAST, DOJ has been smart enough to ALSO obtain the same material from 3rd parties.In fact, it's entirely possible that Microsoft is the vendor for Trump Org's security footage, just like they were and still may be the vendor for Trump Org's email servers. In which case, the video could even be part of the Azure hack.😂

Currently, AND POSSIBLY BC OF THAT MICHAEL COHEN WARRANT, a vendor would have to alert their enterprise client if DOJ got a warrant for a vendor's version of video/email/whatever.If they did, the vendor would say, "Hey, Trump, I've got a warrant from DOJ for OUR version of your surveillance video."When Trump has faced a public legal battle like THAT versus conceding (I know this is nutty, but trust me), he has conceded.

Point is:1) PEOPLE on Jack Smiths' team know this -- that Trump Org has withheld stuff in response to a subpoena that was available from their vendor.2) That the way that would work is that DOJ would get a warrant, serve it to the vendor, who would then alert Trump.

I'm going to write up this remarkable Alberto Gonzales column on Trump's indictment but in the meantime, WaPo appears to have buried it, so go read it. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/08/08/justice-department-bias-against-republicans/

@fj But you did comply? I'm trying to understand whether this is just a law to use when someone's encryption causes a real problem.
