We're number one!
Facebook released its first ever transparency report today, taking a cue from Google in an effort to provide more information about government requests for its users data.
The report shows that the United States makes dramatically more requests than any other country, with somewhere between 11,000 and 12,000 such requests made in the first six months of 2013. India was the next highest, with 3,245 total requests, followed by a handful of European countries.
