Privacy (and security) issues.
Come on, we 've heard this before!
On average we read at least once daily about privacy issues and companies that sold our precious private data.

So many horrible services and companies!

- Cambridge Analytica data scandal
Note: Government and local authorities rely on Facebook and other social networks to investigate crimes and obtain evidence to help establish a crime, provide location information, establish motives, prove and disprove alibis, and reveal communications. In 2018, Facebook admitted[146][147] that an app made by Global Science Research and Alexandr Kogan, related to Cambridge Analytica, was able in 2014[148] to harvest personal data of up to 87 million Facebook users without their consent, by exploiting their friendship connection to the users who sold their data via the app.[149] Sources:

Note: In March 2019, Facebook admitted that it had mistakenly stored "hundreds of millions" of passwords of Facebook and Instagram users in plaintext (as opposed to being hashed and salted) on multiple internal systems accessible only to Facebook engineers, dating as far back as 2012. Facebook stated that affected users would be notified, but that there was no evidence that this data had been abused or leaked.[189][190] Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Facebook#Unencrypted_password_storage
Note: In April 2019, Facebook admitted that its subsidiary Instagram also stored millions of unencrypted passwords.[191]

+Dear Sir or Madam,
+
+This is the official e-mail account of the Lawful Interception Unit of the Guardia Civilwhich is one of the Spanish Law Enforcement Agencies. Since 1999, our unit has been working as the Guardia Civil's Single Point of Contact with Internet Service Providers and every other Online Service Provider that uses the telecommunication network in order to provide any service. Our main task is to request them important information or any other action regarding judicial investigations carried out by our investigation teams.
+
+In Spain, judicial authorities are responsible for the supervision and control of websites in order to prevent the dissemination of criminal content as it is specified in the article 35 of our Law 34/2002 and the article 13 of our Criminal Procedure Code.
+
+As you may have seen in the international media, Spain is currently facing a series of riots involving serious public disorder and main infrastructure's sabotage. There is an ongoing investigation being carried out by the National High Court where the movement Tsunami Democratic has been confirmed as a criminal organization driving people to commit terrorist attacks. Tsunami Democratic's main goal is coordinating these riots and terrorist actions by using any possible mean.
+
+Among them, they have developed an app that provides information about those riots and allows their users to communicate between themselves in order to coordinate those actions. This app has been uploaded in GitHub by the user [private] ([private]), where people that want to participate in riots can access his repository ([private]) and install different versions of this app in their devices. Moreover, other repositories with the same information have been created to prevent the content being withheld.
+
+Concerning this situation, and in compliance with the Law, we send this e-mail with a national court warrant attached in order to request both withholding the content and data related to the aforementioned investigation. This is the same procedure that we follow with other service providers located in the United States, such as Microsoft or Google.
+
+Yours faithfully,
+

+Estimado señor o señora,
+
+Esta es la cuenta de correo electrónico oficial del Grupo de Interceptación de las Telecomunicaciones de la Guardia Civil, que es una de las agencias policiales españolas. Desde 1999, nuestra unidad ha estado trabajando como Punto de contacto único de la Guardia Civil con proveedores de servicios de Internet y cualquier otro proveedor de servicios en línea que utiliza la red de telecomunicaciones para proporcionar cualquier servicio. Nuestra tarea principal es solicitarles información importante o realizar cualquier otra acción relacionada con las investigaciones judiciales llevadas a cabo por nuestros equipos de investigación.
+
+En España, las autoridades judiciales son responsables de la supervisión y el control de los sitios web con el fin de evitar la difusión del contenido delictivo, tal como se especifica en el artículo 35 de nuestra Ley 34/2002 y el artículo 13 de nuestro Código de Procedimiento Penal.
+
+Como puede haber visto en los medios internacionales, España se enfrenta actualmente a una serie de disturbios violentos que involucran graves desórdenes públicos y el sabotaje de infraestructuras críticas. La Audiencia Nacional está llevando a cabo una investigación en la que el movimiento Tsunami Democratic ha sido confirmado como una organización criminal que impulsa la comisión de ataques terroristas. El objetivo principal de Tsunami Democratic es coordinar estos disturbios y acciones terroristas usando cualquier medio posible.
+
+Entre ellos, han desarrollado una aplicación que proporciona información sobre esos disturbios y permite a sus usuarios comunicarse entre ellos para coordinar esas acciones. Esta aplicación ha sido cargada en GitHub por el usuario [private] ([private]), donde las personas que desean participar en disturbios pueden acceder a su repositorio ([private]) e instale diferentes versiones de esta aplicación en sus dispositivos. Además, se han creado otros repositorios con la misma información para evitar que el contenido se retenga.
+
+Con respecto a esta situación, y de conformidad con la Ley, enviamos este correo electrónico con una orden judicial nacional adjunta para solicitar la retención del contenido y los datos relacionados con la investigación antes mencionada. Este es el mismo procedimiento que seguimos con otros proveedores de servicios ubicados en los Estados Unidos, como Microsoft o Google.
+
+Atentamente,
Note: Degooglify your Internet find user-friendly tools.
