Data in the Cloud Still Governed by Obsolete Privacy Laws

The Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) was enacted in 1986 to protect user data from government oversight and significant portions haven't been updated since.

That's a problem, advocates say, because the law is now completely outdated.

The law currently gives more protection to data you store locally and less to data kept in the cloud - an obvious problem in the age of Gmail, Facebook and Amazon Web Services.
