To add, it's strange to me foreigners are anywhere close to work which requires a security clearance. Or for that matter at places where privacy (take: selling out rights and data of Americans) has recently become an issue.
- sjg007 8y agoIt's not unusual to have a gov't business line. There are large construction firms for instance that build govt buildings and all of the employees require clearance. Salaries are higher in cleared jobs generally.
- souprock 8y agoApparently the law is completely backwards from what is required for national security. Most places are prohibited from discriminating against people who have foreign connections. This dramatically increases the risk of spying. A more reasonable law would go the other way: if there could be exposure to trade secrets or bulk personal data, even via an unused ethernet port under the table, then those with foreign connections ought to require a security-aware escort.
