If it really is the CIA, then Siemens might actually be in on it. Bonus for them if they can charge the Iranians to patch the holes that Stuxnet has exposed while continuing to feed the agency with new ones.

- varjag 16y agoSiemens AG is not quite an American company.
- dkarl 16y agoWould that stop them from working for the CIA? Corporations are about as patriotic as the money they're paid with.
- varjag 16y agoIt most definitely would, since Siemens as a company is too expensive and complicated to bribe - even on CIA scale. Also it is public, and is too bureaucratic to get away with that without a trace. Of course nothing prevents recruiting an engineer or two as CIA operatives, but it's not the same as involving the company.
