Microsoft received 37,000 end-user data requests in first half of year |
September 28, 2013
Judges and police investigators are on track to submit about the same number of requests to Microsoft for end user data this year as they did in 2012, according to figures released Friday.
Microsoft received 37,196 such requests worldwide in the first six months of the year, meaning it’s on track to field about the same number of requests as last year, when just over 75,000 were submitted.
Microsoft disclosed the figures in its Law Enforcement Requests Report for the first half of 2013.
Five countries accounted for almost three-quarters of the requests: the U.S., the U.K., France, Germany and Turkey.
