Facebook and Discovery, an Update

By Evan Schaeffer

At Drug and Device Law, David Walk reports on a case in which a court "ordered plaintiff to provide his user names and passwords, directed him not to delete or alter existing information and posts, and granted defense counsel read-only access to the plaintiff?s account."

Walk concludes, "Perhaps Facebook should amend its privacy statement to include a Miranda warning: what you say on your Facebook page can and will be used against you in a court of law."
