Double Take: Condoleezza Rice As Dropbox's Newest Board Member
Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of State under George W. Bush, and defender of Bush-era (and onward) policies about surveillance by wiretapping and other means, has landed at an interesting place: she's just become a part of the small board at Dropbox. TechDirt calls the appointment "tone deaf," and writes "At a time when people around the globe are increasingly worried about American tech firms having too close a connection to the intelligence community, a move like this seems like a huge public relations disaster. While Rice may be perfectly qualified to hold the role and to help Dropbox with the issues it needs help with, it's hard not to believe that there would be others with less baggage who could handle the job just as well."
Some people are doing more than looking for an alternative for themselves, too, as a result.
She's pretty sharp, well connected, and understands how the government sees these types of date & service providers.
At a she's an awesome catch for any cloud company. Throw in her political awareness and it's even better.
How do companies talk themselves into ridiculous moves like this?
This is an order of magnitude worse than Yahoo hiring Katie Couric.
I get apoplectic when I see news like this...reminds me of Steve Schmidt on Colbert saying only criminals want privacy
Thank you Dave Raggett
And TechDirt can suck a bag of dicks.
Quick, let's boycott Dropbox so we can force her out of the company. Then after we've succeeded we can have a another Slashdot story lamenting how intolerant we've all become and we can point fingers at everyone else.
Better known as 318230.
I know you all think Bush and Obama are the same, but there's no way Secretary Rice has "close connections to the intelligence community" under the Obama administration.
If Brendan Eich could be forced out for a $1,000 donation, surely Ms. Rice can be for influencing privacy policy herself, something which is highly relevant to this business. In addition, she has defended her position since leaving office. I think the real question here is where does this end?
I really don't care, this is a private company and they can hire who they want to. That being said, I assumed dropbox already was infiltrated by the NSA.
Some people die at 25 and aren't buried until 75. -Benjamin Franklin
Stop trolling the conversation with the race card. The reason it was controversial is that she most likely knew about the NSA spying on all of us and told us nothing. At best she was complacent. There is no reason to think that she will behave differently now.
She was the provost of Stanford University, she's got a huge rolodex in government and SillyCon Valley. She's also obviously got a big background in IR and particularly working with Russia and Africa, which are both huge growth markets for Internet companies.
Her biggest crime was not asking all the right questions, and didn't have to swag necessary to challenge Cheney or Rumsfeld, not that she was particularly motivated. She's proven to be a pretty bad administrator and manager, but she's going on the Board, not into management.
Don't blame me, I voted for Baltar.
Really? National Security Advisor who supports wire tapping sitting on the board for a cloud based storage solution company. Could your post be code for stupid.
...we must not let the next warning from ShareFiles.com be a smoking gun in the shape of a mushroom cloud!
We must send our youngest interns to effect regime change on their board!
Thank you, and God Bless Dropbox!
I've been meaning to disable this for a while.
If she's on your board, I'll get that done now.
There is now zero room to trust DropBox as an entity.
Let's quit pretending this is anything but an attempt to force her out because she is/was a Republican.
If she were a Democrat, the article would talk about the racist/sexist Republicans that were trying to force her out.
The Democrats have only enhanced the spying and wiretapping, but you don't get outcry's about the likes of Facebook the Zuckerberg's of the world who are huge Democrat donors.
I love to see that "tolerance" the left is famous for.
Did she donate to a Prop 8 organization?
Yup. Any and all objections to her sitting on the board are purely because she's an eggplant. Boy howdy, you sure got us figured out. BRB, starching my hood.
Have Rice or Eich on your board?
No brainer, really.
Nothing new here. Communist regimes from USA and North Korea always worked close together.
We are going to see comrades from both allied states taking over important positions.
Way to go US Republican Commies!
Apparently they never checked her stance on Gay marriage:
“I don’t ever want anybody to be denied rights within our country. I happen to think marriage is between a man and a woman. That’s tradition, and I believe that that’s the right answer. But perhaps we will decide that there needs to be some way for people to express their desire to live together through civil union.”
Condoleezza Rice — Dec. 20, 2010
I guess websites will have to protest and such and then she'll resign after 2 weeks right?
A conservative is incapable of understanding what racism means. Seriously. Ask them to define it and they get a convoluted bundle of CRAP.
Only a conservative would fail to understand concerns about someone who pushed the Patriot Act to the hilt as NSA adviser is 'racist.'
It's most liberals that don't know what racism is. They sceam "racism" if someone mentions islamic terrorists. They think it's great to hire someone just because they're a minority even if they're under qualified and ignore white males when they are qualified. They don't see Affirmative Action as inherently racist, even though it's based totally on race. And they certainly love to say and do racist things about black and latino/hispanic conservatives, but throw a complete fit if a conservative says anything remotely derogatory about a democrat minority. Just note all the, "You didn't vote for Obama? Then you're a racist!" hyperbole from the likes of Chris Matthews and crew.
Racism is believing that your race is far superior in all or most respects to other races and, more to the point, that you and they should be treated accordingly. Or, in some cases, simply judging and hating one specific race. Racism is not merely having pride in your race, even if you're white.
He's certainly qualified.......he invented the internet.
And he's a Democrat.
"The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old......They literally know nothing." - Ben Rhodes
Revolving door of business and government. Having her on board increases the probability that if the Republicans gain the Senate this year, or the Presidency in 2016, the government will "encourage" its subcontractors to use Dropbox, or adopt Dropbox itself. Even if they don't, Republican-sympathetic nation states (vs. Democratically-sympathetic nation sates) are more likely to be good targets for Dropbox's enterprise sales force.
White male tears are my favorite beverage. :)
She is sharp and well-connected but I hope that this does not undermine Dropbox. I know I never trusted Dropbox from the very beginning and this is giving me even more reason not to trust them. Does this mean that government has an in road to easier spying? Only time will tell ....
The reason it was controversial is that she most likely knew about the NSA spying on all of us and told us nothing.
So? Obama and his administration did too.
It's not that using Dropbox is now a bad idea because Rice is on the board.... It's that using any "Cloud Based Storage" is not a good idea. Savvy readers can probably already setup and host their own servers... Why do you want to risk your data to someone else who does it "for free"?
Racism is not merely having pride in your race, even if you're white.
Yeah, that's not racist, just stupid. Why should you have pride in something that's not an accomplishment (except for the late Michael, I guess)? And, if you don't believe your skin tone to be superior in any way, how would pride even enter the equation? I take my initial comment back: having pride on your race, whatever it is, is both racist and stupid.
The select committee approving this has always been bipartisan and Obama reinforced and expanded the snooping for a full term and a half until he got caught. He's still done little to curb the NSA so WHY are you spinning this into some partisan nonsense in opposition to Rice?
The tears of black people delight me.
I canceled my Dropbox account, and I let them know why.
Using WebDAV and PHP.... Anyone using dropbox is probably heading for the exits by now. This only confirms their suspicions.
Uh, her endorsement of torture. How about that, I won't do business with or respect anyone who supports torture.
Anyone remember the Race Draft skit on The Chappelle Show? The whites wanted to draft Colon Powell as 100% white but the blacks would only allow it if they also agreed to take Condaleeza Rice. She wasn't real popular back then either apparently.
I was trying to figure out why people would say that she's connected to the NSA. I was wondering if they'd say that about anyone who served in the White House (Al Gore is on Apple's board). I guess to people subscribing to a team mentality, any member of the republican leadership must be working to promote the NSA, and all the brave democrats are fighting against it.
But in reality, it's pretty silly to think that she's going to advocate turning over all their data to the NSA just because she's on their board and has worked with the NSA in the past. It's also pretty silly to think the NSA hasn't already got that data without her help.
Someone comes along and blames it on "the intolerant left". You can win any argument with that argument. No, it's because most of the time, republicans are bat shit insane.
How many decades is it going to be before the hyper-partisan Democrats are going to be able to admit that maybe, possibly, it just might be that some things that "aren't right" are not, after all, George Bush's fault?
The Balkinization of the business world is a great trend. Keep it coming! Soon we'll have "Republican Party companies" and "Democrat party companies". You'll have to check out the politics of the local fast food franchise owner before eating there, never know you might be supporting an evil Republican who wants to throw Granny under the bus and put women back where they belong, barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen, or a nasty Democrat who wants to "share" all your money among the unproductive masses, steal your guns, close your church, and abort babies in the 3rd trimester. Personally, I'll just go in, eat a burger, and not ask such questions.
Just as good a case for pro-lifers to boycott any company headed by someone who has donated to Planned Parenthood as the boycotts (or alleged boycotts) of Mozilla or DropBox. More tolerance and less indignation about peoples politics *if they don't impact their behavior in the business setting* seems like a good plan to me. I dislike the trend.
I'm pro gay marriage, but stopped using Firefox yesterday at work. I was already using Chrome at home anyway, switched to it at work as well and already don't miss it. Perhaps I'm not consistent, and maybe he *really* resigned of his own free will, but Eich still felt thrown under the bus to me, and I'd not want to reward a company that caved so easily...
A conservative is incapable of understanding what racism means. Seriously. Ask them to define it and they get a convoluted bundle of CRAP.
Conservative: racism is discriminating based on race. For example, college admissions are racist if they use different requirements for different races.
Liberal: racism is the absence of penalizing whites. For example, college admissions aren't racist as long as they penalizes whites; if they penalize Asians more than whites, that's still not racism, since whites are still penalized in some way.
Both are simple: one seeks equality at the start of the process, the other equality at the end of the process, and both think the other hates equality, like almost everything else in the conservative/liberal divide.
Socialism: a lie told by totalitarians and believed by fools.

---- Booth was a patriot ----
How, so now we really are purging everybody who does not agree with us 100% on political issues. Who is next, are we going to go thru the voter records and dismiss anybody who ever voted Republican or Libertarian ??
And I don't support him either. Retard.
Only a libertarian would think this.
and libertarians are the most conservative group in America.
If he'd wanted to look stupid he'd have assumed that having someone associated with Bush II on the board was a necessary and sufficient condition for being able to snoop on people.
Confucius say, "Find worm in apple - bad. Find half a worm - worse."
"Big-L Libertarians" are a bunch of crazies, from all over the left-right spectrum (thus the two axes model). But mainstream conservative though is very much aligned with "classic liberalism" now - empowering individual liberty - while the mainstream left seems to value doing things for the benefit of the collective, "collective rights" (fuck you Justice Breyer, and the like. So "small-L libertarians", sure.
But that's just another way of saying "equality of opportunity vs equality of outcome".

I'd have an easier time believing in "equality of opportunity" again if economic power were more evenly distributed. Unless you're telling me a lower-class kid from the ghetto, a middle-class kid from the 'burbs, and an upper-class kid from whatever upper-class enclave you wish to name all have the same "equality of opportunity". From my vantage point, the first has opportunity of jail or long-term unemployment and welfare, the second lifelong debt and wage slavery (until about age 50, where they slide down into the lower-class), and the third gets the opportunity to have just about anything he or she wants. And the statistics about outcomes and class mobility seem to bear this out. The only way to win a rigged game is to change the game.
That is all.
There is the concept that the fact that she knows what the NSA did and how they operate would be a valuable thing for a company like Dropbox to know.
Its like how a coach for one team leaves to go to another team, they bring with them the knowledge of the plays and schemes that their previous team employed.
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the White Man began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the White Man began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the White Man began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the White Man began to hate.
It was not suddenly bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the White Man began to hate.
Sure, you have a point, but that's just semantics of "opportunity". Does the rich kid have the same as the poor, the smart kid the same as the stupid? But what's the goal: to have one system with the same rules for all, or to have an equitable outcome from the system?
I fund this characterization amusing, because it's usually the right who says "better justice than fairness, better righteousness than justice".
Socialism: a lie told by totalitarians and believed by fools.
Than anyone the GOP is offering in the next presidential go-around and Hiliary.
Let's rephrase that from the opposite viewpoint and see if we can be just as inaccurate!
Liberal: racism is discriminating based on race. For example, college admissions are racist if they use different requirements for different races.
Conservative: racism doesn't exist. You're just making things up so you can get a government handout. Now get back to the plantation.
Condoleezza Rice was the first (and only) female African-American US Secretary of State and the second African-American Secretary of State. What has slashdot got against successful black women?

Spiro Agnew?
Theoretically, but from some of the stuff that has come out from Nixon's time there seems to be a lot that never made it past the joint chiefs. If we look at when Carter was in power there was a CIA operation to do a ransom deal with Iran that was kept secret from the executive branch until Reagan was in place - pretty major stuff to come as a surprise.
I'm convinced that the only thing libertarians have in common is they like the sound of the word "liberty". There's some here that would like to being back King George, some that are Stalin style "useful idiots" for the Republicans and others that are outright anarchists.
...by saying "aren't savvy" and "effortlessly". You've not mentioned any other factors so I presume they aren't important enough to mention. In other words don't bother solving problems that aren't terribly important to you.
So then use a cloud storage provider. Dropbox, SkyDrive, Box, whatever.
Just know that those other, unmentioned factors may come back to haunt you some day. Although if most people's behaviour can be applied to you (sorry, but I have to have something to go on), then you'll worry but not change your activities.

Considering how it's already come out that Wolfawitz parked his girlfriend in the State Department on a higher salary than Rice and not under Rice's orders, I wonder if we'll find out some day exactly how much if the State Department Rice was allowed to run.
Maybe she was just a figurehead chosen for maximum PR - which is more of a comment on those who chose here and wasted her abilities than on herself. Unfortunately it could be twenty years before the documents telling the true story are released.
Hillary on the other hand had her fingerprints all over many knives from the leaked cables. Manning has done the United State a patriotic duty by releasing the information that will prevent her from being trusted enough to become President.
There were plenty of people warning about the outcome. Rumsfeld responded by shutting down one of the army training schools that produced a lot of them. It went to the textbook warning of how not to do it.
There were portions of the US Army designed for the job and a training school to give them and others those skills. However Rumsfeld decided to make cutbacks and remove them from the "known knowns" and then pretend later that the expected outcome of not committing enough resources was unknown.
Are you really so confused about the definition of terms that you somehow find advocating for a dictator to be the same as libertarian. Actually study something and learn and be educated before you do any more damage to society.
So it is actually not liberals/progressives who support Affirmative Action? I ask because Affirmative Action means exactly having different standards for different races, as in lower test scores and GPA for those races but higher for that race. Most people read having different standards for different races as discriminating based on race but as the previous poster said... Liberals don't actually see discrimination as discrimination, they see it as "action".
No, I'm describing people that are so confused that they call themselves libertarian and would like to see Koch become a benevolent King. There are a lot of people that apply that label to themselves no matter what their political views actually are. Is my point clear enough yet?
I suggest a bit more effort at understanding what is written before rolling out the insults - "learn", "be educated", "damage to society" - how childish. It appears you have not yet graduated to "damage society" yet while I've being doing it for decades and even educated a new generation of engineers to "damage society" in the late 1990s.
interesting.
I doubt 99% of readers here know Spiro Agnew.
...and as long as the lower-class kid is the proper skin color, you still get to tret him like shit, because you are shit.
Dropbox as an American cloud provider never was an option at all. Providers in the USA are by default untrustworthy. Sorry, not your fault, ask your gouvernment why they wreck trust with a sledgehammer.
When in reality, nobody is wanting to see any of the Koch family become any kind of King so a bit of education would be in order.
If you want a modern-day example of someone desiring to be a King, look no further than someone who has obtained an office and has publicly stated that he intends to make law by executive order if Congress will not make the laws he wants. That is much closer to being King than spending money, which, by the way, plenty of liberal/progressives do as well: Soros and Bloomberg are the two most well-known.
If you can't see the types that desire an authoritarian government then you were born yesterday. As a clue they normally call it "strong", and then with a few questions and a bit of digging you find out it's full on pre-Magna Carta style monarchy they are asking for.
BS. Racism is prejudice plus power. In America, Black people don't have significant power. Yeah, yeah, Obama was elected, that's why Black people are penalized more for the same crimes than White people, way more likely to get the death penalty, get shot and abused by police, get paid less, get offered worse loans, and consistently have fewer opportunities. Sure, a Black person can be prejudiced towards you, but that is not the institutional racism that people are fighting against.
White people have had so many advantages for so long that try to take them away is seen as a "penalty." That's privilege.
Real racism gets black people killed, fake "racism" against white people hurts your little fee-fees. Notice the difference?
You and whomever voted this drek "insightful" need to educate yourselves (isn't that the "personal accountability" conservatives want so much?)
All law enforcement supports wiretapping. What's in question is how strongly she supports warrantless wiretapping, and how that sits in the current climate. Is anyone keeping watch on past Obama administration officials-- the administration that also supports warrantless wiretaps-- to see where they are employed?
Your insulting comment is code for "foe".
Gamingmuseum.com: Give your 3D accelerator a rest.
I suggest you google that name to get the story. She was parked in the State Department for some time, but Rice was not allowed to do anything other than pay her very high salary. That's a good example of a lack of control and in fact utter contempt of her leadership IMHO. It makes me think that Rice was not really allowed to be properly in charge of the State Department when people like Wolfowitz could do that to her department.
Put yourself in that position - how would you feel about having to pay for an extra employee (who earns more than you) out of your budget but you are not allowed to issue them with tasks? Wouldn't you see it as a situation where you are being treated with contempt?
Oh, like Obama wanting a stronger federal government that regulates nearly aspect of my life, doesn't allow the use of public lands for what they were originally intended for.
Okay, glad we are on the same page except I didn't realize the Koch brothers were such strong backers of Obama. I guess I'll have to dig way deeper. Thanks for the insight there.
WTF? Are you even responding to the right post?
Socialism: a lie told by totalitarians and believed by fools.
The mainstream media (always reliable) informs me that the Koch brothers are the root of all evil. Thus we can reason that any act of Obama (who the MSM assure me is flawless) which looks evil is really the fault of the Koch brother. Also Bush. QED.
Socialism: a lie told by totalitarians and believed by fools.
BS. Racism is prejudice plus power
Is that what the left believes today? Well, it's functionally interchangeable with my definition, I think.
But if you wake up and look around the world, you'll see quite a different picture of who is killing whom. Most murder is same-race, because we mostly kill people we know socially. Most genocide is still religion-based, sadly enough, and very little is racial.

Actually, I think I short-read your thread. The ending sounded rather stereotypical without the upper context. Apologies.
A woman who had a role to play in torturing human beings is on the board of a product I enjoy using. I wish I lived in a world where someone like her would be avoided due to the harm she inflicted not just on this country, but on the fight for human rights. How I wish the people who advocate for torture would be the ones having to face it if they get captured. All of a sudden we'd see them go on at great length about the virtues of human rights.
Hey, let's appoint someone who supports warrantless wiretaps to help run a data storage company! This seems like an appropriate time to plug storj.io, a blockchain-based decentralized cloud storage option that is under development and has received over $250k of private funding.

Back in 2008 when Israel attacked Israel because of foolish Hezbollah misadventures, Condoleezza famously said:
Here is the source.
To this day, the words "New Middle East" is believed by a vast majority over there as a USA conspiracy against Arabs/Muslims. When the 2011 revolution broke out, the first explanation by many was : "It is the USA conspiring against Mubarak, Egypt, Arabs, ...etc."
Now both sides of the political divide in Egypt (pro-Military, pro-Muslim-Brotherhood) point to the other party as an accomplice or agent for that conspiracy.
It is so powerful and pervasive .. no thanks to that ideologue of a Condy ...

No need to pretend to be utterly stupid in an attempt to be sarcastic - I'm merely pointing out that some people who like to self-apply the word "libertarian" have politics that diverges wildly from what you think the word means. I've done that by pointing out one of the strangest and contradictory extremes. Take a look back to the days when Koch was running for office and there really was the weirdness of effectively going for a new feudalism with Koch as King - "strong" leaders sorting things out and none of that Supreme Court trash - off with their heads!
