US President Obama using his BlackBerry in 2013
The end of President Obama’s administration is nearing as President Elect Donald Trump prepares to assume control of the White House.

Obama has arguably been the first president to fully embrace the world of tech – not just how he used it, but how he actively engaged with the industry. There was controversy sure: the aformentioned surveillance, encryption back doors and cybersecurity concerns.
