Google Transparency

Google Transparency seeks to show the number of requests received by countries to block certain content Google's services.

It's concerning that they don't publish data re: China. Apparently it's because "providing such information is illegal under Chinese law. Publishing it also could endanger Google employees in China, she said."

Is it ethical of countries to withhold certain information form their people?
