More transparency into government requests

Google releases data showing government requests to remove blog posts or videos or hand over user information made from July to December 2011. This is the fifth data set that weve released. Google complied with an average of 65 percent of court orders, as opposed to 47 percent of more informal requests. We realize that the numbers we share can only provide a small window into whats happening on the web at large, but we do hope that by being transparent about these government requests, we can continue to contribute to the public debate about how government behaviors are shaping our web.”]
