Statement by Vice President Neelie Kroes "on the consequences of living in an age of total information"
This is a really well thought through statement reflecting on the impact of the recent #PRISM #NSA spying revelations by Neelie KROES (Vice-President of the European Commission).
It's a (Dutch/EU) politician showing understanding and intelligence and writing a thoughtful, nuanced statement which neatly summarises the concerns from a European business perspective.
Meanwhile our UK government ministers insist there's nothing to worry about and that any surveillance is all for our own good and we don't need to worry about it. Duh!
