[kictanet] Apple Publishes New Transparency Report on Govt Data Requests

[Ali Hussein]

Barrack

Charity begins at home. Sometime back I challenged TESPOK to be transparent
and report to the public on such matters. As you can imagine...The silence
continues to date..

How do we expect foreign companies to do such stuff if locals don't see the
need for it?
