Some excerpts from the privacy conference In the speech to high-tech executives here in the heart of Silicon Valley, Mr. Clinton also called on the industry to enhance computer privacy to reassure many people like himself who are still wary of the new technology. Eric Schmidt, said, "What was new was the emphasis on privacy and security. It was the first time he had talked about that with that kind of coherence as an initiative." Mr. Clinton told the high-tech executives that computer users deserved notice about what personal information was being collected and how it would be used, and should be able to choose whether the data would be shared with others. "You know, ordinary folks, even people who aren't online yet, are very excited about the prospects of this age so many of you have done so much to create," Mr. Clinton told the executives, including the executives of such Silicon Valley powerhouses as Yahoo, Cisco Systems and Siebel Systems. "But they are really concerned about this. They are afraid they will have no place to hide." "I won't send e-mail to Chelsea because I don't think it's secure," he said. ======================= Which company has the technology to provide a secure digital identity to individuals if not Novell? In case someone at Novell doesn't get this. Here it is straight and simple. The CEO of Novell is meeting with the chief policy maker in the executive branch of the United States government. The CEO of Novell thinks you guys are developing the technology that he has been talking to the President about. You better have it ready and you better have it ready soon. If Schmidt wakes up one day to find Redmond Washington doing the equivalent of a Windows NT to Novell's netware in the area of security and privacy, I hate to think of how many of you people are going to be taking hamburger flipping jobs at the 2002 Olympics. Does Novell have anything to demonstrate to the companies that the President was addressing his privacy remarks to? ==================== As for you Waldy, I'll try to get you a ticket to Puff Daddys next party.
