Probably because he's the most powerful person on the planet wearing a t-shirt which signals that he stands for the very value's most assume he disregards?

Most powerful guy on the planet? I hadn't heard of him until now.

  Most powerful guy on the planet? I hadn't heard of him until now. He's probably heard of you and that's the real power. He may have to do a few searches but he definitely knows more about you than you know about about yourself (you can forget what you said, how you felt or what did--the computer does not)

    He is still subservient to the government. And really you would only know the most mundane stuff about me by seeing my google searches.

      Dude, he IS the government.

        No, he's an employee.

        "No, he's an employee" ... who likely has access to all his bosses' communications.

        In the sense that J. Edgar Hoover was an "employee," perhaps.

        go date him if you feel this strongly

    lul, the computer doesn't see into the mind or the soul, and that's exactly what a guy like this would want you to believe. you're ridiculous if you think a person can be reduced to a model derived from algos

  "Why is a dude wearing a shirt on the front page?" Not sure if... "Most powerful guy on the planet? I hadn't heard of him until now." OK. Troll.

  Most powerful guy on the planet? I hadn't heard of him until now. Do you think that your having heard of him, or not, has anything to do with how much power he wields? The guy commands the NSA and a big chunk of US military forces.
