In a Reddit AMA session held by Google officials, the company has yet again made its stance clear on NSA’s surveillance and also voiced strong support for the proposed USA Freedom Act.
The federal court on Thursday ruled that NSA’s gathering of data on a large scale was unlawful. Google welcomed this ruling and clarified to its users that their security systems don’t have backdoors for surveillance purposes, essentially reassuring customers that they’re not offering data to the NSA.
The company also mentioned that it has rejected requests from NSA on several occasions when they felt it was over the top and not legally bounding to the company’s policies.
NSA will have to acquire data on a case-by-case basis, which will restrict them from getting access to the entire list of users who might not even be required or needed by the NSA.
The company’s entire Reddit AMA can be found in the link below.
