NEW YORK –(ENEWSPF)–October 7, 2014. Twitter sued the government today seeking to make public more information about how much user data it is being forced to hand over on national security grounds.
The government says that Twitter’s transparency reports can address surveillance orders like National Security Letters only in very broad terms – for example, by counting them to the nearest thousand. The company’s lawsuit challenges several secrecy provisions in the relevant laws as unconstitutional.
