I think that spies have the moral agency to gather and report information in order to better promote the welfare of their countrymen. > I think they should be incentivized to do so much less How? That's an impossible task in my book, and the main reason I think that spies are ethically just is because it's the nature of the beast. If you figure out a good way to do this, might I suggest focusing your efforts on de-militarization instead of de-espionage? The people with bombs and tanks are the one's who do the most damage.
