An interesting move by Google. No doubt still singed from its adventure in mainland China, the search engine has created a new tool that maps countries whose government has requested or taken legal action to remove content from either YouTube or Google search results, or otherwise have asked for details about its users. For removal requests, currently the top four are Brazil (leading by a significant margin), Germany, India, and the United States. Brazil also leads in data requests, though by a less significant margin, followed closely by the United States, and then the United Kingdom, India and France.
