Publishing a transparency report is an excellent step and it doesn't deserve this sort of comment. Government surveillance is a policy issue first and foremost, concentrating on consumer tech companies is but an attention seeking techniques to make the news more palatable to casual readers, if corporate compliance bothers you then telecom companies ought to top of the list seeing as they never even mounted a single challenge, nor did they seek transparency.

If your reasoning is that they're not lobbying against this, then you're wrong. You can't expect people not to use the Facebooks or Apples, it's a policy issue. Pressure the government, vote for the right people.
