Kind of scary isn't it? With this whole PRISM system being employed by the NSA. Backdoors built into every service we use on a daily basis. Google, yahoo, Microsoft, etc. Who's to say those backdoors aren't being exploited by hackers. Should be interesting what info turns about security and backdoors in things we use today.

Apparently a backdoor has been built on every version of Windows after 95.

Almost all of these companies comply with subpoenas to release all of your information (too expensive to counter it). While if you had control, you can file for a rejection (Motion to Quash) the subpoena due to the nature of the information (e.g. confidential patient data, financial, etc.) They have to go through you and you have to be notified before they take your information. You will know if they come into your office to get your server. This is one of the protections you get as being a physician is that you can refuse subpoenas (which don't require the signature of a judge) and make them get a warrant for the information. Bear in mind, any judge willing to sign such a warrant to turn over confidential patient information is committing political suicide. So it's much harder for them to get to get a warrant for sensitive information. This is how it should be.
