Do you know, there is no privacy in technology even if huge internet companies give their assurances to protect your data and privacy, you are about to find out the reason.
Microsoft gave access to intercept encrypted messages and user’s communication to US intelligence services, including helping National Security Agency to use the company’s own encryption for top-secret documents.
Now NSA can access web chats on new outlook.com portal , even they can intercept hotmail. The company worked with the FBI this year to allow NSA easier access to its cloud storage service SkyDrive, which now has more than 250 million users worldwide. Files shows that Microsoft handed the encryption even before its official launch.
Microsoft also worked with the FBI’s data intercept unit to “understand” the potential issue with a feature in Outlook.com that allows user to create aliases. Nine months after Microsoft bought Skype , NSA is collecting the Skype video calls.
NSA claimed to have “Direct Access” to many major internet companies including Microsoft, Skype, Apple, Google, Facebook and Yahoo.
In practice, US companies put energy, focus and commitment into consistently protecting the privacy of their customers around the world, while meeting their obligations under the laws of the US and other countries in which they operate
And last, Company says it is legally compelled to comply . Question arise , Where is our privacy ? What about our data protection?
