Yes, I'm afraid that with this take-down, the US good ship Cloud
Enterprise might be rapidly sinking giving other smart politicians an
obvious sound byte...

Australia isn't New Zealand, we work within the confines of due process.
Cloud services are safe in this country.

What were NZ Politicians thinking ?

They obviously need to find a new advisor... Unfortunately I hear that
Sir Humphrey Appleby GCB, KBE, MVO, MA (Oxon) is not available.
Which is a shame, because he could have fixed this snafu right smart.

Err, you told a lie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8keZbZL2ero
