- knodi123 6y agoNot defending or supporting, just quoting- > Nakasone told senators that the U.S. was unable to keep up with the threat in large part because laws prevent NSA and Cyber Command from adequately observing adversaries operating on U.S. networks. “They’re no longer just launching their attacks from different parts of the world. They understand that they come into the United States, use our infrastructure, and there’s a blind spot for us not being able to see them.” It seems like the gist is, FBI focuses on internal only threats, NSA focuses on threats from outsiders, but if you want to track threats on a global information network properly, you need someone whose purview covers both.
- DJBunnies 6y agoIt seems (to me) like an excuse to skip due process and otherwise circumvent law. > “What I am identifying right now is our adversaries understand that they can come into the United States and rapidly utilize an internet service provider, come up and do their activities, and take that down before a warrant can be issued, before we can have surveillance by a civilian authority here in the United States.”
