"The only difference is that the N.S.A. does it for intelligence, and Silicon Valley does it to make money."
Nobody at the NSA would make any decision that would financially benefit them?
I really can't read that statement without being cynical. I will just leave it there..
- drawkbox 13y agoEvery competitive company is salivating at the idea of getting access to business plans, ideas, investments, etc from someone in the NSA about their competitors (corporate espionage - not directly mind you). How many people would it take to pay off to get access to some of this information? This is bad bad business and dangerous keeping this much info with no oversight really (well Congress and a couple people at the NSA if that is considered oversight -- a Congress that doesn't even have time to read bills anymore and apparently haven't read the 4th).
