An anonymous reader writes "NSA surveillance has raised concerns among customers globally about the safety of their data from U.S. government spying. More organizations, companies and countries are looking for ways to distant themselves from the NSA activities to safeguard the information of internet users. IBM is the latest to fall into the category of companies that do not want to be associated with the NSA spy activities."

    Ha! The NSA has become that unsavory character that you meet in dark alleys to buy your drugs from. Still buying them, just denying it when you go to NA. Lots of corporations in NA (No-spying Anonymous) now.

    Maybe IBM's sponsor is GHCQ.
