		GHFigs on Aug 27, 2013 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Global Government Requests Report Per capita is misleading, as the report does not tell you the country of the user for which data was requested. If, for instance, Facebook were providing data on a non-US user, that would be counted as a US request.

So? Surely the interesting part about this is which governments are nosy, not the citizenships/residences of the people they're nosy about.
