EFF. Org- When the Government comes knocking who has your back petition.

When you use the Internet, you entrust your online conversations, thoughts, experiences, locations, photos, and more to companies like Google, Yahoo and Facebook. But what happens when the government asks these companies to hand over your private information? Will the company stand with you? Will it tell you that the government is looking for your data so that you can take steps to protect yourself?

It's often up to the companies to decide whether to stand with their users.

Users shouldn't be left in the dark. They have a right to know when the government is seeking their data and deserve a chance to stand up for themselves. But they can't do it unless companies are willing to make a commitment take a stand with them. As stewards of our digital lives, companies need to promise to be transparent and help users fight for stronger, clearer protections and standards in the law.

While some Internet companies have stepped up for users in particular situations, it's time for all companies who hold your private data to promise to do so. Sign the petition...
