Snowden used free software because he didn’t trust Microsoft | |
|

| Time: 12:29 EST/17:29 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

At the Free Software Foundation’s LibrePlanet 2016 conference, Edward Snowden credited free software with enabling him to blow the whistle about government surveillance. Speaking via video link from Russia, the former NSA contractor said that “what happened in 2013 couldn’t have happened without free software”. But as well as indicating his preference for free, open source software, Snowden revealed that he refused to use Microsoft software because he “couldn’t be sure” that there weren’t backdoors built in. | ||
