Dropbox joins bid to publish spy data requests

Dropbox joins Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, LinkedIn and Facebook in their quest for permission to publish the number of data requests they have received from the U.S. government. The cloud storage locker has filed a brief with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance (FISA) Court. The government has told Dropbox that it isn’t allowed to say exactly how many national-security requests it receives, Dropbox said in the brief. The company is allowed to publish information about those requests only if they are lumped together with regular law-enforcement requests and, even then, only in groups of 1,000.”]
