Interesting... are they threatening you with jail time if you do not comply?

I'd have to talk with our counsel about specific threats. Suffice it to say, "compel" usually means a forcible seizing of data / equipment.

We cooperate with the government in all cases where the law is clearly being broken, regardless of the associated politics.

That isn't exactly what you asked, but I think it's the best answer I can give. The specifics of the situation you describe are complicated and highly nuanced.

Very glad you are standing up against a government that, despite what they say, is becoming increasingly totalitarian, and intolerant of any opposing voices

Good on y'all for fighting the good fight. Also, seeing Dallas on TV is surreal.

Apple stood up against the SB case, but BH tries to protect millions of users. That's heroic!

I have several domains registered with Dreamhost, and full hosting, too. I couldn't be more proud to support Dreamhost in protecting our Constitution. Thank you for standing up for what is right.
