>The NSA used to play defence and offence, and has gone full-offence for a generation. And IIRC most of those people who used to work for the NSA now work at private firms like the NSO group, which is pretty scary when you think about it. It's hard to blame them though, if I was being offered the amount of money they were given, I would probably take it as well. I recommend the book 'This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends' by Nicole Perlroth, it gives some good insights into what is going on behind the scenes (though with some of the major events which have happened since it was published some things may be outdated. Either way it's a good read.)
