GOVERNMENT ASKED SILICON VALLEY TO INCREASE THEIR EFFORTS TO FIGHT TERRORISM

AS TERRORISTS ARE NOW USING SOCIAL MEDIA  GOVERNMENT SEEK HELP FROM SILICON VALLEY .

As terrorists around the globe are trying their best to create unrest in whole world as there are news roaming that terrorists are now using encryption technology to communicate with each other.

To deal with this scenario government of US and of other countries are now finding a way to deal with this stuff as organizations like  ISIS are widely using twitter few months ago there was news related to ISIS twitter accounts you can check it here.While governments are trying to find a way to deal with this on the other hand social media sites like twitter and  Facebook have put their hands up cnet reported "Twitter and Facebook say it's unrealistic and impossible to do more than they are already without violating free speech and privacy rights.

Violent threats and the promotion of terrorism deserve no place on Twitter and our rules make that clear," a spokesman for the San Francisco-based social networking site said Tuesday. "We have teams around the world actively investigating reports of rule violations, and they work with law enforcement entities around the world when appropriate."

Companies like Apple have already refused to bend their rules even after getting several requests from government  to provide a backdoor from which they can access terrorists communication. Stance of  such companies is that they everyone has right of privacy and freedom and providing a backdoor will violate right of privacy.

Government of US and European union are deciding to make a law and according to that law tech companies will be bound to provide a backdoor to government.

Cnet reported " information can be the key to identifying and stopping terrorist recruitment or a terrorist attack, but we need help from technology companies," Feinstein, a Democrat from California, said in a statement Tuesday."

Debate regarding backdoor access is heating up and is not expected to cool down soon .Country like PAKISTAN who is a key player and strategic ally of US and UK for war against terrorism face a similar issue when they asked mobile making giant Blackberry to give access to encrypted messages of BBM. Despite after a warning from gov of  Pakistan that if they will not provide backdoor they will not be allowed to work in Pakistan but still they refused and  "Blackberry will leave pakistan by this years end" by this years end.

Big tech companies should cooperate with governments and specially key players like Pakistan who is witnessing a huge success in operation zarb-e-azb which is taking place in North waziristan and the whole world is appreciating its efforts.

Silicon valley should take a solid stand against terrorism byhelping Governments.
