I'm proud of all of you who have had some hand in pushing back. Basic transparency measures are the right place to begin, and with them, a rudimentary accounting by the public can commence.

There's no reason why everyone here who's at the helm of a tech company or investment firm, large or small, doesn't sign onto these initiatives/letters and demand accountability for these electronic surveillance programs. I'm aware many of you have boards. Bring this up with them, and make it an imperative!

In case you missed it, you can spread this widely (and sign, of course): https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/provide-more-trans...
