This is a great validation of our position that privacy matters, and in addition to the benefits privacy brings to society, it also makes good business sense.

The MIT100K is one of the world’s largest and most famous start-up competitions. More information is available on their website http://mit100k.org/(new window) and Wikipedia(new window).
