Internet search giant Google periodically discloses data regarding requests that the company has received from state authorities in various countries. In its latest report published earlier this week, India was at the second spot, in terms of the number of requests, after the United States.
India requested for user data 2,691 times in the first half of 2013 while the US made 10,918 requests. However, the number of instances where Google has produced full or partial data has fallen from 79% in 2010 to 64% now. Since July 2010, perceived potential to offend religious communities has been the single biggest reason for content removal requests.
