"SASCHA MEINRATH: Well, it is clear that the damage reputationally to the United States and to these companies, in particular, is astronomical, to be measured in the tens of billions of dollars economically—socially, it’ll be far worse than that. And I think many of these companies are now seriously concerned about the ongoing damage that these revelations, but in particular the NSA’s activities, have created for them. And so I think what we’re seeing now is a number of companies, of which that list that you mentioned is sort of the vanguard, who are saying, "This must cease and desist. We must have transparency about what’s happening. We must have a public debate about what is acceptable in terms of this balance between national security and individual rights. And we must re-establish the global trust in the U.S. as an ethical Internet steward and in these companies, in particular." And I expect that they will push back fairly strongly on what’s been leaked thus far in terms of the incredibly marginal pivoting that the NSA review group is currently recommending."chychohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03780939672952610970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925344575983663234.post-66748406580674960772013-12-14T08:02:42.427-08:002013-12-14T08:02:42.427-08:00UK Secure Email Provider Shut Down His Service In ...<strong><a href="https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20131212/10563525549/uk-secure-email-provider-shut-down-his-service-january-to-prevent-gchq-obtaining-encryption-keys.shtml" rel="nofollow">UK Secure Email Provider Shut Down His Service In January To Prevent GCHQ From Obtaining Encryption Keys</a></strong>chychohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03780939672952610970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925344575983663234.post-70086939717801321202013-11-28T14:42:45.018-08:002013-11-28T14:42:45.018-08:00The NSA is crippling America’s economy - " I...<strong><a href="http://www.salon.com/2013/11/27/the_nsa_is_hurting_americas_economy_partner/" rel="nofollow">The NSA is crippling America’s economy </a></strong> - " In the wake of spying revelations, US companies are reporting profit losses to the tune of billions"chychohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03780939672952610970noreply@blogger.com
