Google commentary in WashPost on Open Internet and Google's
new "Government Requests Transparency Tool"
http://bit.ly/ciMRnD (Washington Post)
"Unless companies, governments and individuals do something, the
Internet we know is likely to become ever more restricted -- taking
choice and control away from users and putting more power in the
hands of those who would limit access to information."
...
"We at Google believe that greater transparency will lead to less
censorship online. That's why we are launching a tool that will give
people information about the government requests for content removal
and user data that Google receives from around the world":
