How’s this for “don’t be evil?”

Every so often, Google releases its Transparency Report, when it tells users which government agencies have asked the search giant to remove content or hand over user data.

This year, the worst offender was India.

Here to talk with us in today’s Mid-day Extra is Rebecca Rosen of The Atlantic, who’s been following the story. She explained what the data means, why India might not really be the worst offender, and how the U.S. stacks up.
