Yahoo Also Discloses Number of Requests From Feds

Joins Apple, Microsoft and Facebook in campaign to look transparent

Yahoo became the latest company to disclose the number of requests for user data it received from law enforcement, a number that includes the number of national security requests it received.

It also announced that, later this year, it will issue its first global law enforcement transparency report covering the first half of the year. The report will be updated twice a year.

Yahoo said it received between 12,000 and 13,000 requests in the six-month period Dec.
