[Duraspace] Who Has Your Back? 2013 | Electronic Frontier Foundation

[Hilton Gibson]

When you use the Internet, you entrust your conversations, thoughts,
experiences, locations, photos, and more to companies like Google, AT&T and
Facebook. But what do these companies do when the government demands your
private information? Do they stand with you? Do they let you know what’s
going on?

In this annual report, the Electronic Frontier Foundation examined the
policies of major Internet companies — including ISPs, email providers,
cloud storage providers, location-based services, blogging platforms, and
social networking sites — to assess whether they publicly commit to
standing with users when the government seeks access to user data. The
purpose of this report is to incentivize companies to be transparent about
how data flows to the government and encourage them to take a stand for
user privacy whenever it is possible to do so.
