That is a laugh in one respect. They all respect privacy on a level equal to the NSA.

[frogjerk]

Kettle calling the pot black. I don’t trust any of these organizations either. Heck, Google is probably got the goods on the NSA.

[Gaffer]

These companies gave us up like a two dollar hooker gives it up for a crack rock. Now they’re ‘fighting’ back?

Give me a break.

[KarlInOhio]

I might respect this request more if they hadn't been such roundheels for the NSA before Snowden told the world their little secret.

[Gaffer]

They’re really only bloviating now (methinks they doth protest too much) because the users of their products DO NOT TRUST THEM. I’d be willing to bet their ‘market share’ however they assess it is off quite a bit.

[Gaffer]

Nothing but market damage control....

[varyouga]

Smoke and mirrors. They let the NSA in with open arms until the pesky peasants found out

[Red Badger]

Don’t use the internet, don’t use a telephone, don’t send any mail and you’re safe..............

Funny but I think liberals are saying about the same thing.

They are panicked because they are losing contracts and business overseas as well. That is the extent of their moral concern.

[Paulie]

A lot of customers must now be former customers...

[Nervous Tick]

>> Don’t use the internet, don’t use a telephone, don’t send any mail and you’re safe..............

I’m so paranoid, I don’t even THINK anymore.

[Cementjungle]

Sounds like nothing more than a PR campaign. We all remember Obama’s visits with the heads of most of these companies early in his first term. They got into bed with him, and now we know it. They’re embarrassed that they got exposed, but I’m sure they aren’t going to change their ways.

[trisham]

I hear you.

It's only a figure of speech, honest.

[KarlInOhio]

I’m so paranoid, I don’t even THINK anymore.

Shouldn't you be at DummiesUnderground then?

[null and void]

I use StartPage and am waiting patiently for a StartMail account.

Good Idea...

Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!

To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...

[Cold Heart]

I’m responding by telepathy. However recent news reports of new technology state that form will not be secure in the future either.

[duffee]

That didn’t really care until it came out they were complicate
with the NSA and that they themselves had been spied on.

[Colonel_Flagg]

So the people who track my movements across the internet and share my personal information for advertising purposes are now concerned about privacy.

Oh, the irony.
