Bruce Schneier leaving 'security futurologist' position at telco employer BT
What does the future hold for security and privacy expert Bruce Schneier after parting ways with the UK telecommunications company BT Group? It's where Schneier was employed for eight years as a security futurologist. Schneier said of his future plans: "Answer cloudy, ask again later."
The Register first reported the employment change after receiving a leaked BT internal email.
Schneier has spent months analyzing NSA documents leaked by Edward Snowden and writing about government surveillance; the telco denied that Schneier's outspoken criticism played any role in ending the work relationship as of the end of December 2013.
