Submission + - Who trades and profits from these NSA secrets ?
Jos Marten writes: One point that Snowden made is that there is a commercial and industrial angle — about the massive hacking by the Private Contractors , mostly owned by Hedge Funds , doing the actual hacking, at least 21.000 at last count are Prrivate Contractors employees — and how can anybody in their right mind not expect these Hedge Funds NOT to trade on all that very valuable information ? They got access to at least 122 Government Leaders phones conversations and emails , data on thousands of top executives, lawyers, Government top staff, regulators, Judges, Police, Scientists and Doctors , Investors, etc., this information is very , very valuable. The solution is to Investigate the Trades and get the money back. Carlyle , Providence and KKR, to name a few of the Hedge Funds controlling NSA Private Contractors, have made billions of dollars every year for the last 5 — 7 years, so ask ? did they profit from this valuable information in the databases they control ?
Another point is that due to these abuses, IBM, Cisco, Juniper, Motorola, HP, Dell, Apple, Google, Yahoo, etc., have lost billions in contracts in many of these countries abused, but the media, when they have reported loses , they blame it on everything except this huge mistrust about the NSA: These companies should be demanding reparations from these Hedge Funds that have destroyed so many contracts, they need help setting the record straight.
