Zuckerberg: Government 'blew it' on data collection
November 25, 2013
Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg says the government "really blew it" on the surveillance tactics used by the National Security Agency.
"I think the government really blew it on this one, and I honestly think that they’re continuing to blow it in some ways. And I hope that they become more transparent in that part of it," Zuckerberg said. He acknowledged that people "all want national security." But when asked whether the mass collection of data was the route to achieve that security, Zuckerberg said, "These things are always about in terms of doing the right things, and also being clear and telling people about what you’re doing."
