<div>After a leak of documents from the National Security Agency showed that a secret program called PRISM allows widespread <span>surveillance</span> of U.S. citizens' phone and internet activities with some of the world's biggest tech corporations, the nation is concerned and confused about our privacy rights. </div>
<div>President Obama and the NSA have stated that widespread spying of Americans is not taking place and that the government is only requesting certain data from these companies. There is an easy way to show if this is true and that companies like Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Twitter have taken the commendable step of requesting that the NSA allow them to publish the records of government data requests in their company transparency reports. </div>
<div><span>In part, Google's letter states:</span></div>
<div><i><span>Assertions in the press that our compliance with these requests gives the U.S. government unfettered access to our users’ data are simply untrue. However, government nondisclosure obligations regarding the number of FISA national security requests that Google receives, as well as the number of accounts covered by those requests, fuel that speculation.</span></i><br><i><br>We therefore ask you to help make it possible for Google to publish in our <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank"

Google’s numbers would clearly show that our compliance with these requests falls far short of the claims being made. Google has nothing to hide. </i></div>
<div><span>The government allowed Google to start reporting the number of</span><span> </span>national security letters<span> </span><span>they received requesting data earlier this year, but they are still barred from releasing information about Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) orders. The requests for this data often comes in the form of secret court orders that not only force these companies to give data but also make it impossible for them to discuss even the basic details. That should change.</span></div>
<div><span>By allowing these companies to include this information in their transparency reports, the government will be giving American citizens at least some of the insight we deserve about how our daily activities like emails and Google searches are being tracked by the government. </span></div>
