- magicalist 13y agolike, say, into the actual source of that story[1] instead of the wired blog writeup? For instance, the part that explicitly talks about limiting the share of information to the Chinese intrusion and not user data? http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704041504575044920905689954.html http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274870404150457504...
- aniket_ray 13y agoI'm sorry but that article talks about how Google and NSA worked together when the accounts of Chinese activist were being hacked. How is that related to helping the US government spy on its citizens?
- brymaster 13y agoCutts said: > push back on overly broad governmental requests > publish our transparency report on governmental requests and also mentioned Google 'fighting back' at National Security Letters. The fact that courts have upheld secrecy between NSA and Google before (just the one we know about) is quite relevant. There are bad things at play here and just because Google has a cute, colorful logo and hires nerds doesn't make them innocent either.
- andreyf 13y agoEquating the allegations denied in this post to the response to an attack by a nation state against Google is kind of like comparing reporting a robbery to the police to criminally conspiring with them.
