Two pieces of legislation are of particular concern to governments â" the 2017 National Intelligence Law and the 2014 Counter-Espionage Law. Article 7 of the first law states that âoeany organization or citizen shall support, assist and cooperate with the state intelligence work in accordance with the law,â adding that the the state âoeprotectsâ any individual and organization that aids it.

And it appears that organizations and individuals donâ(TM)t have a choice when it comes to helping the government. The 2014 Counter-Espionage law says that âoewhen the state security organ investigates and understands the situation of espionage and collects relevant evidence, the relevant organizations and individuals shall provide it truthfully and may not refuse.â

Maybe, but they sure as he'll aren't paying for the parking spaces they're waiting in.

Until you mentioned Congress (e.g U.S.), I could have sworn we had worked for the same organisation.

I'm pretty sure that just shooting the sharks at the enemy would be more effective.

Also, Insource the IT from India.

Seriously, it's like every Architect, Developer, and Tester is Indian. The BAs too lately. Same problem as outsourcing through... no speed, no creativity, no ownership, no quality. Just confusion and half-assed results. And immigration for the whole familty. Good luck taking the PM roles from the angry middle-aged white women though!
