DSK conspiracy theories are a fun example of French intelligence services in hotels. Certainly, the phrase has a titillating James Bond aspect to it.
If you haven't heard the phrase before it sounds weird, I do understand it's not intended maliciously.
I don't think I'd use the term without quotes in my own writing.
- nickpsecurity 10y agoI Googled it. I don't know if it's true or not but it was entertaining. :) My memory is fuzzy here but I think one of my sources on it was the leaked MOD Security Manual of UK that talked about what various countries pull the most on their agents or diplomats. I know it was in a few places way before that DSK story. The one on Russia was worse, though. It said they not only would bug your hotel when they knew you were coming but might create a way to ensure you landed in a bugged one even if you switched at last minute. Very determined professionals over there haha.
