Fiorina: Next president needs 'fundamental understanding' of tech

The next US president needs a fundamental understanding of technology and a vision to use it, said GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina. The former Hewlett-Packard CEO said the next inhabitant of the White House also needs to know when to take a hands-off approach. "It's important to have someone in the White House who has a fundamental understanding of technology, a fundamental vision for how technology can be used," she said. "One of the things I think government shouldn't be doing is trying to regulate in some bureaucracy how innovation progresses in the technology industry," she added. If elected, she said she would immediately try to roll back the new network neutrality rules approved by the Federal Communications Commission. She asserted the "400 pages" of regulations "can't possibly work."
