Tech not politics!

Disappointing article - this is meant to be a tech magazine, not a student rag. Obviously anyone who has ever been inside an airport will realise that not everybody will have to share their Twitter password. This is clearly a measure meant for people who already arouse suspicion. Equally obviously, the same people will already be working on creating fake social media accounts that they can share without fear of exposing their secrets, so the whole exercise is pointless.

Fake News

Trump wants to protect American jobs. The big tech companies want to cut costs - they fire Americans and hire poor people from other countries on close to minimum wage. They also steal the cleverest and hardest working people from poor countries - highly unethical. So report both sides of the story please?
