Decoys, diversions, repetition, statistics, mimic, story fragments, baiting, ruses, exploits, feigned incompetence, gaming rankings, creating bottlenecks, disruption, infiltration, plausible denials, leaks, honey traps, spoofing, fake victim, fake rescue, competitor surveillance... All of these are standard practise in business. Any business that doesn't do them get demolished or taken over by one that does. And any person who doesn't do them gets knifed by one who does, not only in business but also in open source software so I've found out. Perhaps the NSA/GCHQ have simply been taken over by business people.
