    Microsoft has released transparency figures for the first half of the year and launched a new site to keep all the reports in once place. The Transparency Hub is very similar to Google's Transparency Site, and brings together law enforcement demands and national security orders. It's also the first time Microsoft is showing requests to remove content, both by governments and via Europe's 'right to be forgotten' laws. Redmond is also using the hub to show how it's resisting efforts by governments and police to get at customer data to the full extent of laws, both in the US and abroad.
