NSA, Prism, Privacy and all the rest

Well, its been too long since I posted.  I wanted to post something about the recent revelation about NSA spying on American citizens, the government's PRISM program, Edward Snowden revealing information and all the rest.

Frankly, I found it hard to do so.  I prefer to stay apolitical with this blog, and so much of what is coming out is being pickedup by different people and pushed in different ways.  In some ways, its like the whole issues are a mirror to see how other people think about privacy and the like.  Its a bit scary.

Bruce Schneier on his blog has frankly been doing a better job that I can.  And I largely agree with much that he is sharing.

The Electronic Frontier Foundation did a report on "Who Has Your Back", showing companys who are (or are not) protecting your information.  After this, I wonder what this report will show in the next edition?
