Alec Ross, the State Department's Senoir Advisor for Innovation, describes how the State Department wants to use technology to advance diplomacy. Program from Saturday, April 17, 2010.
@ItsaStringThing This guys is a front man politician with a "company VP like" style who I thought talks the (sweet) talk well. He serves his role well. What I am more worried about is the content: this idea of grass root resistance to get around block sound all fine for example because we think if this as China or Iran. But it seems like a scheme no better than what North Korea is using (hackers acting from other countries). How does that help the US?
This guy is just a little bit too smooth-talking buzzword salesman-ey for my liking. Plus, he needs to figure out that using the term "bad guys" does not win him any points. It just makes him sound lame and folksy in the style of Sarah Palin
Alec ross, low level idiot aparachik, political TOOL. 'How the government can drive innovation' the government shouldnt be involved in private sectors. But make sure to bring up the 'cold war' to validate your point, because that adds an imagined legitamcy. 'Fighting against bad guys'. What a fucking child this guy is. Hellary klinton sickens me.
