NPR and Kaspersky Lab

      NPR is the public radio station, home to a liberal focused agenda, reporting stories from across the landscape involving politics, literature, public service comment, interviews with authors, artists, leaders, actors, singers and song writers, musicians, and educators.  It plays to a wide audience.  They depend on public funding from the government, but also depend on donors both large and small.
   Yesterday, while the Mayor was listening in, the announcer listed some of the recent donors.   One of which was Kaspersky Lab.   Looking into this donor is quite revealing.
      Why would a Russyan company donate funds to a public service radio station in the United States?   Hmmmm.   How timely you ask.   Let's go to the nytimes.com.  Let's look at the business section on February 17, 2015.   Now look at page B1 and follow with page B7.
     Voila-there's the man hisself:  Comrade Eugene Kaspersky, the leader and co founder of the company(the other founder is his wife, or one of his wives).   He is only 49, but has been around for awhile, studying mathematics and eventually found his way into computers and from there developed cybersecurity interests at a time of increased use of cyber attacks on corporate and government systems.   The article in the Times notes that his company, head quartered, where else, Moscova, claims that the USA has embedded snooping software on government systems around the world.  The revelations of Edward Snowden mention some of the cyber placements of the NSA.   He says this activity has been going on since 2001.   I wonder if there's a connection between.......
      His bio on Wikipedia is concise and includes many of accomplishments in the field of computer security, designing cutting edge technology that is used extensively, especially by the Kremlin and its rulers.
      The question is: When will Mad Vlad take him down and or take him out?   Sure, he's the equivalent of a rock star, and in Russya, one day you're up, and then, 'adios, Amigo.  Go to the Gulag.
Maybe he has enough $$$ to survive, but the clock is ticking in Moscova, as we know.
    Leave now, Eugene, time is running out.
