Your Privacy and Offshore Outsourcing

Posted by michael on from the what-privacy-policy? dept.

    What's the US going to do to get the Indian?

    Pass laws barring outsourcing to India or any other country incapable of protecting private data.

    India is riding high on outsourced jobs and must heed the concerns of the nations employing thousands of Indian citizens. If it doesn't, I'm sure another country would be willing to take those jobs.
