My opinion often differs than the one I should take to further Rackspace's business interests.
It is interesting whenever people call me to task on that. Funny enough Rackspace never does. In this case a commenter or two is calling me on my PRISM stance on the post I made last night.
My opinions here have not been vetted by others at Rackspace and I pinch myself every day that I work for such a cool company that lets me come to my own conclusions even if those conclusions might not be in the best business interests of Rackspace.
Educated people can come to different decisions than you do. With PRISM most senators and the President came to the conclusion I did. This could end up costing Rackspace lots of business, particularly from overseas customers. Many of my coworkers and bosses disagree with me. But to their credit they let me take my own opinions in public.
So far we might not have a strong fourth amendment in the US but I am glad I still have the first.
If you want Rackspace to comment officially I will get our execs to do so.
Onward! I wish more companies were like Rackspace.
