Google has said that it removed 640 videos from YouTube that allegedly promoted terrorism in the second half of 2011 after complaints from the British police, however, it rejected many other state requests for action, including one by Pakistan that asked Google to delete six videos that satirized the Pakistan Army and senior politicians, according to a BBC report. The order had come from Pakistan’s Ministry of Information Technology. The internet search giant said it terminated five accounts linked to the suspect videos following complaints from the UK’s Association of Police Officers. Overall, Google said it had received 461 court orders covering a total of 6,989 items between July and December 2011. It added that it had received a further 546 informal requests covering 4,925 items, of which it had agreed to 43 percent of the cases.
