[liberationtech] Techies--Congress can't hear you

[Lorelei Kelly]

dear lib tech friends,
I wrote this piece--out today-- "The Bigger Problem Revealed by the NSA
Fiasco"

it looks at the institutional problem of information management and the
fact that Congress simply can't deal with complexity...our present
challenge with over-surveillance is a case in point...

I would argue that our next step is bridging this gap between revolutions
and institutions--as it is worsening worldwide. And we need to be there
first...the middle will not hold unless we build it with our blueprints...

Thanks for all you do.
