Lavabit did not record metadata and stored messages in such a way that only the user, not the service provider, could access their archive.
Does a service provider have the responsibility to provide access to personal data? According to his case, yes. In a secret decision.
DOJ lawyers couldn't understand why he had objections to their requests.

Next time they're not gonna ask but just take. The government has abused our trust and, worse, have done it in secret. CALEA [Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act] requires that telecoms develop tech to tap any individual - but not email. The judge who ruled on his case served 7 years on the FISA court.
He knows that the government has collected data from other companies because they've reimbursed other companies for the expenses accrued in order to allow surveillance.

TX has a data breach law which requires a service provider to report to users the kind of security breach the Feds were asking him to allow.
Can the random number generators in Intel chips be trusted? However, even if the Feds have your password they are disallowed by statute to login as the user. They went after his SSL [Secure Sockets Layer] keys to find out when a user logged in or out, as all the other information would be available over the Net.
He can only talk about the SSL key demand, nothing about FISA court or what else has happened since then
He developed server-based encryption
Working with Phil Zimmerman to make secure email system
NSA collected his data upstream at his provider
Zimmerman believes that Obama did not have the strength to stand up to the generals in a top secret briefing
"I don't think the DoJ had a clue about what the technology is "... And what the FBI was asking for
His appeal will be held in the January session of the 4th district
