  Which countries have laws that require their citizens to "support, assist, and cooperate with national intelligence efforts"?

  I've never heard of that as a requirement for US citizens. I mean the government can't compel you to be a spy (industrial or espionage) last I checked. I'd be happy to be corrected. I mean you can totally volunteer for it though, of course.

    nothing prevents government from creating such law or executive order if necessary.

      Nothing except the Constitution. Seems like an open and shut 1A case.

        How 1A can protect from this? It is essentially draft.

          The government forcing you to reveal information you know is compelled speech. That’s a 1A violation, feels like.

  >> All organizations and citizens shall support, assist, and cooperate with national intelligence efforts in accordance with law, and shall protect national intelligence work secrets they are aware of. > That's as vague as it can be. Remember: China doesn't really have "rule of law." I understand vague laws are pretty par for the course in Chinese law. It makes it easier for the "law" to be bent by officials to achieve their goals. > Does any country not have similar laws? I doubt the US does. The CIA can't press you into becoming an agent.
