New WikiLeaks Documents Reveal NSA Spied on French Companies
Three fun truths:<p>* France is one of the most notoriously brazen state sponsors of industrial espionage, especially within the EU.<p>* This stuff is rampant between all the industrialized nations. You can find stories going back decades about Americans being evicted from embassies over industrial espionage. Somehow, we all seem to remain allies.<p>* Technically --- modulo the "getting caught" part --- this is what NSA is supposed to be doing. That's a positive assertion, not a normative one!<p>Curious how we never seem to see Russia as the focus of Wikileaks releases. They must just be really respectful of the civil liberties of citizens of the world.
