Twitter Fight US Government about User’s Data Request


Twitter has made the legal claim against US government about surveillance laws, leading to Digital Marketing Agency reported.

By this way Twitter cannot allow US government know about their customers’ information, if their customers’ data are revealed, it seems violating the right to free speech.

As the firm said, “it brought the case in an effort to force the government to be more transparent about personal data requests”.

“The US government engages in extensive but incomplete speech about the scope of its national security surveillance activities as they pertain to US communications providers, while at the same time prohibiting service providers such as Twitter from providing their own informed perspective as potential recipients of various national security-related requests,” wrote Twitter.

“Technology companies have an obligation to protect their customers’ sensitive information against overbroad government surveillance and to be candid with their customers about how their information is being used and shared”.
