Homeland Security Dept. Fills Privacy Post with former DoubleClick privacy officer



The wacky thing is, this may actually work out okay. According to the article, Nuala O'Connor Kelly came on board when DoubleClick was embroiled in consumer privacy controversy and headed up the department responsible for cleaning that up. If she brings the sort of consensus-building and concern for input from the consumer privacy groups she showed at DC to D.C., this could end up being the most progressive part of the Mother^H^H^H^H Homeland Security Dept.

Or we could end up with usage-tracking ads stapled to our eyeballs. One of the two.
