It would be really ironic if Marissa Mayer's fear of going to jail for not cooperating with the NSA would turn true. Except she would go to jail for cooperating with the NSA and leaving the backdoors in, which others may have later exploited to cause the data breaches.
I think it would send the right message to every other tech company executive even considering doing back room backdoor deals with the NSA.
- adrianratnapala 9y agoRemember that for anyone to go to jail, prosecutors must prosecute. And this will open up space for within-government backroom deals, presumably between the DOJ and security forces. All done under the shadow of whatever the president wants. Still, less spectacular good things might happen anyway, through civil procedures such as this. Besides, populist calls for for jailings set of my own BS detector. Better if this kind of lawsuit actually gets won or lost on rational grounds and over time becomes a serious incentive to people making business decisions. And, I'd say we have a long way to go before we get to that goal-state.
