BANGALORE: Google recently gave out its latest transparency report showing the number of user data requests the company had received in the first six months of 2014. Google says it roughly sent close to 32,000 requests for information by putting together 65 percent of its time, as reported by the Quartz India.

The website had looked at the numbers back in 2010, where Google had first started reporting the percentage of requests it granted. Starting from then, the United States had beat any other nation in the volume of requests submitted, where the number of  requested information is equal to just 0.02 percent of the country’s total number of internet users and the numbers stand at 62,709 based on World Bank data.

For the remaining countries on the list of the top five requesters for the data are India, UK, Germany and France where the percentages were nearly the same.

However, when looked at which country was the most successful at obtaining data from Google over the same period of time, the top nation was Finland which has one of the highest internet penetration rates in the world. Three of the other nations the United States, UK, and New Zealand are a part of the “Five Eyes” intelligence alliance which predates back to the World War II times and was also referred to in the NSA leaks last year.
