Google explains US search warrents in video form.

Google made a blog post today explaining their internal process for dealing with US search warrents. They also updated their transparency report.

 

We consistently push back against overly broad requests for your personal information, but it’s also important for laws to explicitly protect you from government overreach. That’s why we’re working alongside eight other companies to push for surveillance reform, including more transparency. We’ve all been sharing best practices about how to report the requests we receive, and as a result our Transparency Report now includes governments that made less than 30 requests during a six-month reporting period, in addition to those that made 30+ requests.

Cool little video in my opinion. Good to see they want to explain this and be more transparent but there has to be stuff they're still not saying.

Google is the only company where I feel like they do things in the consumer's best interest instead of what makes them the most money.
