Go on, send our ranking even horribly higher. We've slipped down to #9
the past few days.
I was about to, when I decided to take close and hard look at the text
of the terms of the licence/terms of service or whatever that thing
is... only to first notice that it was last updated 4 years and 8 moths
ago, to the day.
And contained the following language:
"We disclose any information we possess in response to subpoenas,
court orders, or legal requirements, and such information might be used
by the receiving party to determine your identity, your Web usage and
online shopping behavior, or other things about you. We generally do not
inform users of such requests for information, although we
might try to do so in some cases."
Any idea if this spreadeagle supine position applies to court orders
from China, Iraq, Turkey or other charming countries of similar caliber?

I think Alexa is part of Amazon. Their record might be a clue.
