Good to see WordPress publishing a transparency report. It appears the blogging software company takes its media role seriously.
Thanks so much. This is great.
So my comment is awaiting moderation…… or is this another term for wordpress censorship.So much for rhetoric on democratic process!
I was most surprised by the small number of requests, especially considering the enormous number of WordPress sites and the wide range of topics and opinions expressed.Thank you for defending our right to free speech.

Very proud to be part of a team of people who genuinely fight for users, and so happy to see this.

“We’re reporting the maximum amount of information allowed by law about the number and types of National Security Requests that we received. The disclosures we’re currently allowed to make are limited, and unfortunately, we’re not permitted to paint a more truthful picture.”
Being forced by your government to lie and obscure is corrosive, soul-rotting, and evil. I got into WordPress and web publishing to help people speak past the lumps their governments try to lodge in their throats. This report is important speech, saying what it can around the lumps, and I’m proud of it.
“We wish we could tell you more.”
Chilling, isn’t it?

I am so very pleased and proud to work for a company that is on the forefront of both publishing and the rights of artists and authors on the Internet. Having had a chance to work with the legal team at WordPress.com has been a highly educational, and inspirational, experience.
really appreciate the effort of great team.
