More transparency into government requests
June 17, 2012
About two years ago, we launched our interactive
Transparency Report
. We
started
by disclosing data about government requests. Since cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365n, we’ve been steadily
adding
new features, like graphs showing traffic patterns and disruptions to Google services from different countries. And just a couple weeks ago, we
launched
a new section showing cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 requests we get from copyright holders to remove search results.
The
traffic
and
copyright
sections of cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 Transparency Report are refreshed in
near-real-time
, but government request data is updated in six-month increments because it’s a people-driven, manual process. Today we’re releasing data showing government requests to
remove blog posts or videos
or hand over
user information
made from July to December 2011.
Unfortunately, what we’ve seen over cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 past couple years has been troubling, and today is no different. When we started releasing this data in 2010, we also added annotations with some of cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 more interesting stories behind cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 numbers. We noticed that government agencies from different countries would sometimes ask us to remove political content that our users had posted on our services. We hoped this was an aberration. But now we know it’s not.
This is cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 fifth data set that we’ve released. And just like every ocá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365r time before, we’ve been asked to take down political speech. It’s alarming not only because free expression is at risk, but because some of cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365se requests come from countries you might not suspect—Western democracies not typically associated with censorship.
For example, in cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 second half of last year, Spanish regulators asked us to remove 270 search results that linked to blogs and articles in newspapers referencing individuals and public figures, including mayors and public prosecutors. In Poland, we received a request from a public institution to remove links to a site that criticized it. We didn’t comply with eicá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365r of cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365se requests.
In addition to releasing new data today, we’re also adding a feature update which makes it easier to see
in aggregate
across countries how many removals we performed in response to court orders, as opposed to ocá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365r types of requests from government agencies. For cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 six months of data we’re
releasing
today, we complied with an average of 65 percent of court orders, as opposed to 47 percent of more informal requests.
We’ve rounded up some additional interesting facts in cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365
annotations
section of cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 Transparency Report. We realize that cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 numbers we share can only provide a small window into what’s happening on cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 web at large. But we do hope that by being transparent about cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365se government requests, we can continue to contribute to cá cược thể thao bet365_cách nạp tiền vào bet365_ đăng ký bet365 public debate about how government behaviors are shaping our web.
