CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted on Facebook that he called President Obama to complain about NSA surveillance.
"The Internet is our shared space," he wrote. Most people and companies "work together to create this secure environment and make our shared space even better for the world. When our engineers work tirelessly to improve security, we imagine we're protecting against criminals, not our own government."
The U.S. government should be the champion for the Internet, not a threat, Zuckerberg continued, calling for transparency about what the government is doing "or otherwise people will believe the worst."
He called the president "to express my frustration over the damage the government is creating for all of our future," Zuckerberg wrote. "It's up to us -- all of us -- to build the Internet we want."
Zuckerberg's statements sparked mixed responses.
