So even though the US is allied to the state I am a citizen of, should I ever work for any sort of communications company, I'll be fair game for US intelligence services.
Got it. For practical purposes, the alliance is worthless then.
- colechristensen 13y agoThough it seems states used to act more publicly ashamed of it, espionage has been a part of the interactions between states allied or not since the beginning of time. Suggesting otherwise is incredibly naïve as is supposing military alliance with the United States is worthless.

- sentenza 13y agoGames on the big board are irrelevant compared to the intelligence service of a nation state ripping your life appart because they want your access credentials to do some industrial espionage. Because this is what this is. A nation state coming down with all his power on some of us worthless pawns because we work in otherwise harmless infrastructure businesses. How is that being compensated for by the abstract benefits of an allegiance in "the war of the systems" or some other bullshit.
