The
internet search leader, which develops the Android mobile system and
also offers email and a range of other applications for consumers, has
led the way in notifying users of government spying. Others, including
Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O), have since followed suit.
Google had
previously said that it had been issuing tens of thousands of warnings
every few months and that customers often upgraded their security in
response.
