@aral@astepanovich We wouldn't be able to have paid for dinners...but conference would go on. So it limits how much power they have. -
@IdentityWoman@aral This is key. They should have no power over content/substance. They shouldn't be able to impact outcomes. -
@astepanovich OK, so if they have no power over content/substance would@rightscon accept The NSA and Palantir as sponsors?+@IdentityWoman -
@aral But if they wanted to give money with no strings, I'd be ok. Access mostly rejects gov funding.@IdentityWoman -
@astepanovich OK, at least that’s consistent. I understand your position. I don’t agree with it but I understand it. +@IdentityWoman -
@aral@astepanovich I can only share about the event I lead and have done so for 10+ years. It is grassroots, global and working event. -
@IdentityWoman We put companies in the room with activists and facilitate that conversation. We don't pull punches.@aral -
@astepanovich The issue is that one of those parties paid for the room. +@IdentityWoman - 1 more reply
