Only Twitter said no, and pointed him to a blog post stating as
"...company policy a prohibition against the use, by outside developers,
of â??Twitter data for surveillance purposes. Period.â??


Facebook: No answer.

Microsoft: â??Weâ??re not going to talk about hypotheticals at this point,â??
and a link to a company blog post that states that â??weâ??re committed to
promoting not just diversity among all the men and women who work here,
but â?¦ inclusive cultureâ?? and that â??it will remain important for those in
government and the tech sector to continue to work together to strike a
balance that protects privacy and public safety in what remains a
dangerous time.â??

Google: No answer.

Apple: No answer.

IBM: No answer.

Booz Allen Hamilton: Declined to comment.
