      When the NSA can't hack in to your systems, they just get a man hired on the inside. Something to think about when you do background checks on your next employee.

        Interesting. Not really surprising.

          @Nic Well that's comforting.. So when will we impeach the government who doesn't care about the laws or the constitution?

            How does the NSA find so many people willing to work for low government wages and work for a completely unethical division and throw away their careers and their ability to even talk about what they do? How can there me so many people competent enough to be useful t the NSA while being so willing to be those people? It blows my mind that they can hire anyone, let alone the numbers necessary for what they supposedly do.

              Competent? Who said anything about competent... you haven't worked in government much have you? lol. Well okay the town I worked at wasn't like that... but the county. I'd be surprised if they knew how to open a door somedays. It tends to be a lot of Highschool drop outs that can't find anything else so they get in government somewhere and stay in it since they can get a 1-3% COLA per year even if they start out at $8/hr they can make okay latter on.

                Well to sneak into real companies takes some level of competence, I would imagine. And to have access to anything good would take even more.

                  And to do all of the hacking that they do doesn't require the best people but it requires good ones.

                        Look for the bug in your shorts after you ask them that.

                              Does this rag smell like chloroform?

                                Maybe they are like the Silence and you can't remember them once you have looked away.
