Everyone has heard the term "military-industrial complex", though I doubt many realize just how big it has become. There is now a "cyber-intelligence industrial complex" that few are aware of. Corporations and those retiring from government positions are now profiting as our intelligence agencies are outsourcing. I am linking a rather lengthy article, it is well worth the read, though, as it explains how those leaving government service start or go to work for companies that contract with the NSA and other agencies. As much as 70% of our intelligence work may now be contracted out. These people keep their security clearances and use them for profit with zero accountability.
The ones at the link, though, are just intelligence. Chertoff started a company, many others from the whole range of alphabets are doing this now. But hey...what could possibly go wrong?
