Max Kelly left his post as Chief Security Officer at Facebook for the NSA in 2010, after having worked with the agency when Facebook joined Prism in 2010
The NSA is increasing recruiting from Silicon Valley and investing in start-ups
Facebook recently revealed the NSA made between 9,000 and 10,000 requests for information in the latter half of 2012
It's unclear whether Kelly is directly involved in the NSA's Prism program

In a strange reversal, the man who used to be responsible for keeping our Facebook information private and secure is now working for the National Security Agency, the government agency currently under scrutiny over its information-gathering practices.

Max Kelly left Facebook in 2010, where he had been Chief Security Officer and headed for the NSA.

Kelly's move from the world's largest social network to the world's largest spying agency suggests a commonality in the aims of both the government and Silicon Valley - acquire and exploit large amounts of personal information about Americans.

Kelly would have been working at Facebook when the company joined the NSA's Prism program, and it seems the government is actively seeking technology and hacking experts.(continued)

Look closer at the flag. The scumbag has a space invader cannon blowing away the stars.

And this is the kind of clown we have working at the NSA.

Anybody really believe we have any secrets for Snowden to give?

We are watching the replay of Hitler's climb to power all over again.Same song, second verse.

Thanks for posting, note the source. Once again, things we won't be reading in the Obama knee-pad wearing lamestream media.

Any wonder why we won't see this in the American media? (Rhetorical question, doesn't require an answer...)

Appropriate, given that the federal government views the Several States, at best, as mere vassalage.

That is how I interpreted it too.

Personal data mining by the NSA or Facebook... “What difference does it make?”
