..as it turns out, its not just the usual suspects who want to control what you see and read. Here's a nice quote from a spokesperson for the Electronic Frontier Foundation: "Every six months, the Google transparency report comes out, and almost everybody writes a story that goes like this: 'Google gives up data to governments, and this is bad,'"........... "And usually the story they don't write is that nearly every company with data about users gives up data to governments. We don't have any data about what they're giving up and what circumstances they're giving it up under. Not only is what Google doing better than nothing; almost everyone else is doing nothing." Note this: "nearly every company with data about users gives up data to governments."! Google get fingered but at least it tells you who's asking!
