ACLU Senior Legislative Counsel Tim Sparapani will soon begin working on privacy issues as Facebook’s new director of public policy, which is a newly created position. He has been working at the ACLU since 2005, focusing on privacy issues especially related to identification, data mining, watch lists and other security questions. I have worked closely with Tim for several years and greatly respect him. I hope that he will continue his strong fight for privacy rights in his new position at Facebook.
