Mark Zuckerberg, Co-Founder and CEO of Facebook spoke with President Barack Obama
to discuss about internet privacy impositions by the U.S. government. Zuckerberg said,
“The Internet works because most people and companies do the same. We work
together to create this secure environment and make our shared space even better for
the world.
This is why I’ve been so confused and frustrated by the repeated reports of the behavior
of the U.S. government. When our engineers work tirelessly to improve security, we
imagine we’re protecting you against criminals, not our own government.
The U.S. government should be the champion for the Internet, not a threat. It needs to
be much more transparent about what it’s doing, or people will believe the worst. I’ve
called the President Obama to express my frustration over the damage the government
is creating for all of our future. Unfortunately, it seems like it will take a very long time
for true full reform.
So, it’s up to us – all of us – to build the Internet we want. Together, we can build a
space that is greater and a more important part of the world than anything we have
today, but is also safe and secure. I’m committed to seeing this happen, and you can
count on Facebook to do our part.”
Why is Internet Privacy very important to all of us?
a. Because it is not safe to trust anyone with our online accounts.
b. Because nobody really owns the internet. It is a free space.
c. Because it protects and secures not only our online accounts but also our online
activities.
d. Because the government’s protection is not enough.

“In the Olympic Peninsula of northwest Washington State, a small town named Forks
exists under a near-constant cover of clouds. It rains on this inconsequential town more
than any other place in the United States of America. It was from this town and its
gloomy, omnipresent shade that my mother escaped with me when I was only a few
months old. It was in this town that I’d been compelled to spend a month every summer
until I was fourteen. That was the year I finally put my foot down; these past three
summers, my dad, Charlie, vacationed with me in California for two weeks instead.
It was to Forks that I now exiled myself – an action that I took with great horror. I
detested Forks.
I loved Phoenix. I loved the sun and the blistering heat. I loved the vigorous, sprawling
city.” – Stephenie Meyer, “The Twilight Saga”
