    Google reveals government censorship requests

    Internet giant Google released a new interactive online map on Tuesday (21 September 2010) that reveals the number of user information and censorship requests that it has received by governments around the world.

    It allows users to see which governments have demanded that Google disclose information about users or block its services and products. The US has requested data the most times, followed by Brazil and India, according to the tool.

    According to the report, figures from China are not disclosed because the country considers censorship demands as state secrets.
