In the latest Testimony, Comey tried to brush-off Apple's statements saying that it is not Apple's business or place to decide or judge whether or not FBI is doing good job keeping citizen's data safe.
I cannot imagine statement more de-attached from reality than that. If the companies like Apple who sells millions of products to customers and rely on customer's trust are not a good indication or source of information whether the Gov is doing good job, then I don't know who is...
"We the People".... you'd think.
- markdown 11y agoThey don't like the concept of corporate personhood when it doesn't suit them.
- taneq 11y agoI don't think they're real big on the concept of personhood in any sense when it doesn't suit them.
- guelo 11y agoI'd rather we be precise in these type of conversations instead of using the general 'they'. Corporate personhood was a decision by the supreme court, a separate branch of government than the FBI. The FBI doesn't seem to like the Bill of Rights whether it applies to people or corporations.
- asquabventured 11y agoFBI wasn't responsible for the data being stolen by China, that was OPM[1], a completely separate and NON-security focused branch of government. From my point of view, whenever "we the people" demand more "answers/solutions" from the government, what ends up happening is more bureaucracy that ends up failing us all.
