I’ve previously mentioned the new State Department’s cyber group, and we now have a new cyber ambassador, who was approved for the position by the Senate on Sept 15. The Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy is designed to focus on international cyber conflicts and negotiations and promote internet freedom and open communications.
Forward progress, that’s why. I’m increasingly frustrated by any quip that says “government can’t do anything right” because there is significant evidence it can. In cyber, there is now a dedicated ambassador after promising to create one. Forward progress.
