TechImpact / it happens there first

CBS News tells me that outsourced emails may be more of a security problem than in the past. It seems that a judge has recently rules that "IF" text messages and emails are stored on a third party providers system, employees have the right to privacy. That means no checking on email to see if your latest widget plans are going out the virtual back door. Of course, this does not apply if the emails are stored on company internal servers, so we may see a move away from third party hosting when security is a priority.

CBS sites Associated Press as original source, but I'm afraid to link to them.
