Yet the page says "less than 0.00385% of customers had data disclosed due to government information requests." So they ARE giving data to the government at their request... BTW, that percentage of say, 100 million customers (which I'm sure Apple has, probably more) is 3850 people, not an insignificant number... Anyhow, I personally wouldn't trust anyone anyway. Google, MS and Apple are all American corporations, and need to comply with US law, no matter how asinine.

Their detailed report[0] is pretty clear, and defines what they mean for the categories they're reporting. According to that document, they had 20221 device data requests, and they provided data for 12146 of those requests (some of those requests have many individual devices). For account data, they received requests for data from 2803 accounts, and provided some data for 1333 accounts. 0: https://www.apple.com/privacy/docs/government-information-requests-20140630.pdf https://www.apple.com/privacy/docs/government-information-re...

Unless I’m doing the math wrong, 0.00385% of 10 million is 385.

  Yeah, my math was bad, too early in the morning (that was pre-coffee). Anyhow, they have way more than 10 million customers (likely more than 100 million too).

  Not to mention that Apple has sold over 800 million iOS devices.
