      What’s more shocking: #privacyweek being sponsored by Palantir, Google, FB or academics not seeing a problem w that?https://twitter.com/anbusch/status/657672108269576192 …

      @aral Do you find negative influence on academic program or do you imply guilt by association? Hope not @csoghoian @InfoAPC2015 #PrivacyWeek

          @aral @lilianedwards @anbusch @csoghoian @InfoAPC2015 Such sponsors take away legitimacy of this conference. As bystander seems like a joke.

          Dear @podehaye, as even a cursory reading of the #privacyweek website shows, I neither organize nor attend the conference. @lilianedwards
