$2B build + $2B in hardware - that we know about. Probably much more going into this project. These data centers are probably true works of art inside and out.

$2B build + $2B in hardware - that we know about. Probably much more going into this project. These data centers are probably true works of art inside and out. From a technical standpoint, the NSA has some of the most advanced technologies available today. Most aren't even available to the commercial market; Intel has been making custom silicon for the NSA for a decade. They are on the cutting edge.

They don't get commercialized or taught to the public/industry like NASA, DARPA, etc... and what terrorist attacks have they stopped? Kids still shoot up schools. People drive car bombs into Times Square (street vendors stop them). They blow up marathons. They get on planes with bombs in their shoes (passengers stop them, not the NSA).
