    There's tons of better sources, but this can give you an idea: "NSA 'engaged in industrial espionage' - Snowden" http://www.bbc.com/news/25907502 http://www.bbc.com/news/25907502

      While I think it is possible that the US is engaged in economic spying for profit, there isn't as much info about them providing data to companies directly for profit, and certainly not in that link. Industrial spying is a power grab more than an economic one. Your article noted Siemens as a spying target. Here is a a possible reason for industrial spying: > Stuxnet functions by targeting machines using the Microsoft Windows operating system and networks, then seeking out Siemens Step7 software.[0] [0]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuxnet

    Snowden files, 2013-2014. The nastiest example is probably hacking into petrobrass, the oil company of a third world country. Industrial spying on a third world country? That's like punching a cripple.
