Facebook CEO Calls Obama to Express Concerns Over NSA Spying

Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of the personal data sharing site Facebook, is not a fan of the National Security Agency. Just a day after a report revealed that the government agency posed as Facebook to secretly spy on millions of people, the 29-year-old company founder took to — where else? — Facebook to directly criticize the massive surveillance system. In the message, he said he called President Barack Obama to express his frustrations “over the damage the government is creating for all of our future.” Which is colloquially known around the Facebook office as “that thing that’s making us look bad.” Per his note on Facebook: “When our engineers work tirelessly to improve security, we imagine we’re protecting you against criminals, not our own government. For its part, Facebook uses secure protocols for traffic and offers two-step authentication for fraud prevention.  Nonetheless, Facebook isn’t known as a company that makes its privacy policies or settings perfectly transparent.
