I’ve stumbled upon an interesting interview by Ben Kepes, he talked to Lindsay Finch, Senior Global Privacy Counsel for Salesforce and Box.net co-founder and CEO Aaron Levie.
While reading the article, I was surprised to find a transparency report by Google, which contains details about Government Requests for content removal /user data. According to this report, the german law enforcement agencies made 1759 requests for personal data during the 1st half of 2011, compared to 11057 requests made by US law enforcement agencies.
Google also allows to download all data from the report as raw data, which can be useful when preparing a discussion about Privacy related to web-based services such as SaaS.
