Obama To End NSA’s Mass Surveillance Program

As we know that NSA has a lot going on, protest from people and hundreds of accusations of spying, hacking, eavesdropping, and sneaking into people’s lives and threatened them with security. So to end these issues president Obama has proposed an end with a solution to put the mass surveillance to an end. Yes President has called an end to NSA’s bulk data collection of phone records of American people. A post has been revealed from White house in which he figured the plan, which will give phone companies to hold the records of their customers, if congress passes it. If any data will be required by NSA or any other intelligence they would have to take a court order from Foreign Intelligence Surveillance court to get the required data from any telecommunication company.

Cnet posted the details“Obama's proposal would end the Patriot Act's Section 215 bulk telephony metadata program. Details of that program and other NSA surveillance activities came to light after former NSA contractor Edward Snowden leaked a series of confidential documents. The resulting outcry among American citizens, privacy advocates, and many politicians in both parties forced Obama to direct the intelligence community and the Attorney General to come up with other options. The companies would be compelled by court order to provide technical assistance to ensure that the records can be queried and that results are transmitted to the government in a usable format and in a timely manner.

Now all left up to the Congress, because the law will only come into picture when Congress will passes it in parliament. This proposition proposed back in January now NSA wants to continue the program with reauthorization for 90 days. Recently NSA asked so many Internet companies to remove that data and they have shown entire requests to public.

Venture Capitalist Peter Thiel Addresses Entrepreneurs

One of the First Founding investors in Facebook Peter Thiel address a conference at Silicon Valley full of entrepreneurs, Thiel was there as chief guest and gives them a better advice to get better business with low input and how can they impress Investors to enhance the technology components. Thiel asks so many questions too, to take opinion from listeners. He asked that tell me a thing which is truth but nobody agree with it? Also said that Next Mark Zuckerberg won’t be building Social Networks, He probably inspired a lot of people in that conference and revealed that there are very narrow field in enterprise software where nothing explored so people will reach out for it. The people listening him were the employees of ad tech firms.

Thiel Told to Forbes “I am not that worried that technology itself is the direct cause of a growing wealth gap. There’s something quite strange about how the middle class has been under great pressure in the last 40 years, People blame it too much on technology. It has more to do with technology going global, driving down wages. Americans are basically competitive with the Chinese and Indians, but not with computer technology. For the most part, the story of humans and computers has been a complementary one. The Internet has been very disruptive to business models–especially journalism, at least to the monopoly-like business models.”

Thiel has a point that he thinks, we are still passing through a time where people do not believes in Marketing and thinks that marketing is a bad thing. He also pointed the hard work by which world’stop CEO went through like Oracle’s Larry Ellison, Apple’s Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg, who didn’t even dropped out of college.
