NOT GOOD Obama Headed to Cybersecurity Summit in Silicon Valley

On Feb. 13, President Obama will attend a White House cybersecurity summit at Stanford University.

The  White House has  announced that it will host the summit on "Cybersecurity and Consumer Protection"to bring together “major stakeholders to help shape public and private sector efforts to protect consumers and companies from growing network threats.”

The daylong summit in Palo Alto will bring Obama together with “CEOs from a wide range of industries, including financial services, technology, retail and communications companies; law enforcement officials and consumer advocates.”

According to the White House, the summit is “the next step in the President’s BuySecure Initiative,’’ launched in November.  TRANSLATION: Buy with government monitoring and the squeezing out of small operators.

It is never about "consumer protection," when the elitists in a sector get together with government power.
