Knowledge about personal/priavate information should not be taken lightly. All of us know this guy called Snowden. Snowden shaped the future of Whistle Blowers when he leaked Confidential NSA documents that put the USA on the spot. The leaked documents exposed how the American government was spying on its neighbors and its own people with Impunity. I will not be talking about Snowden today. My focus will be on Multichoice . Recent happenings have proved beyond any reasonable doubts that this company does not respect or value our privacy.But you know what? Kenyans do not understand how their privacy matters. That explains why Multichoice may get away with these serious crimes unscathed.
If we could Just boil things down to the reality on the ground, Multichoice should pay dearly for disrespecting our Privacy.
There ya Go ...
