You want the data? We'll give you the data

You want the data? We'll give you the data. In light of Google being ordered by a US court to turn over its user data to corporate entity Viacom, TechCrunch has suggested that Google should deliver it... on paper, which aside from rendering the data useless, would by some estiamtes be equivalent to the amount of paper stored in the Library of Congress.
To that excellent suggestion, I would add that in order to reduce the environmental impact of such a massive printing that Google reuse paper, printing the data on the back of other documents that are destined for the recycling bin anyway. Something like, say, copies of the the US Constitution.
