-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [ NNSquad ] Google sheds light on FISA requests Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2014 11:11:49 -0800 From: Lauren Weinstein <lauren@vortex.com> To: nnsquad@nnsquad.org Google sheds light on FISA requests http://j.mp/1fp5iuS (Google Official Blog) "Last year we filed a lawsuit asking the FISA Court to let us disclose the number of FISA requests we may receive and how many users/accounts they include. We'd previously secured permission to publish information about National Security Letters, and FISA requests were the only remaining type of demands excluded from our report. Today, for the first time, our report on government requests for user information encompasses all of the requests we receive, subject only to delays imposed by the DoJ regarding how quickly we can include certain requests in our statistics." - - - --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren@vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
