NSA review board to meet with privacy, tech groups

The members of President Barack Obama’s panel reviewing the National Security Agency's controversial surveillance programs will meet with privacy advocates and officials from technology companies in two separate meetings, The Hill has learned. The officials plan to meet at an unclassified conference center that is part of the White House compound but not actually in the White House. Caitlin Hayden, a White House spokeswoman, emphasized that the meeting is not a "White House meeting" or a "meeting with the White House." The list of privacy activists and technology officials who will attend the meetings has not been made public.
