Zuckerberg Fumes At NSA Spying, Calls Obama For Reforms


The Facebook post by its CEO also asserted the need to build a secure web. It said, “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.”

The blurt out from the CEO can also be attributed to the recent upraising against the $19 billion Facebook-WhatsApp deal over privacy concerns. The leaked documents from Snowden alleged that the tech giants such as Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Apple and others had given NSA an easy access their servers, which the companies denied outright.

The devious ways adopted by the U.S. government has also attracted flak from the founder of Web, Tim Berners Lee. On the Web’s 25th birthday, he called for the Magna Carta of internet in the face of increased threats to it. "Our rights are being infringed more and more on every side, and the danger is that we get used to it. So I want to use the 25th anniversary (of the web) for us all to do that, to take the web back into our own hands and define the web we want for the next 25 year," Lee told the Guardian.
