Activists Set Up Billboard Near Amazon Asking Company About $600 Million CIA Contract
(TheAntiMedia) The CIA recently signed a $600 million deal with Amazon, allegedly for the use of their cloud computing technology. The large contract has some users concerned about their privacy, because many of them feel that being on the same cloud as the CIA puts their information at risk.
Very few details of this deal have been made public, but concerned Amazon Cloud users want answers, and want the company to promise that they will not share its user’s information with the CIA.
Earlier this month, activist groups unveiled a giant billboard near Amazon’s Seattle headquarters that says “The $600 million question: What’s the CIA Doing on Amazon’s Cloud?”
