Twitter released its second Twitter Transparency Report (#TTR) and introduced more granular details regarding information requests from the United States, expanding the scope of the removal requests and copyright notices sections, and adding Twitter site accessibility data from partners at Herdict. Twitter believes it is vital for Internet services to be transparent about government requests for user information and government requests to withhold content from the Internet; these growing inquiries can have a serious chilling effect on free expression – and real privacy implications.
