No, but the WSJ probably is a better choice:

Google Reports Surge in Government Requests for User Data - Digits - WSJ

And requests by the U.S. government to remove content from Google products also jumped–to 92, a 59% increase. The majority of requests, which targeted 757 items, involved alleged defamation, found either in Google’s Web search results, Google groups, YouTube or in Blogger, the search giant’s blogging platform. Google chose to comply with 63% of the requests.

They should put them all in one section: These YouTube Videos Were Requested To Be Removed By The Feds.

Sorry but I need to see for myself that they aren't something like kiddie porn.

Wouldn't be surprising. What was the name of the "Spy & Report on Your Neighbor" website that this administration tried to start in order to get people to report people who said bad things about the government? In the news a month or two ago...
