Jack Dorsey’s interview with Snowden sends a strong anti-surveillance message to Trump - Recode

Also see Jack Dorsey, who created Donald Trump’s beloved Twitter, has not been invited to the tech summit. Sad! (Recode)

"It wasn’t really a conversation. Dorsey essentially gave Snowden a massive platform — over 150,000 people watched — to broadcast his opinions about why government surveillance is wrong and why technology companies should not participate.

Dorsey’s decision to host Snowden was a bold move in the run-up to President-elect Trump’s inauguration. Airing such a divisive political figure as Snowden sends a clear message to the incoming president that Twitter will not participate in dragnet government surveillance programs that bypass due process."
