It just means they will automate the spying more. Clapper already said he intends to use 90 percent fewer system admins.
I wouldn't take this as meaning there's going to be significantly less spying or anything like that.
- r00fus 13y agoThis fills me with signifiant unease. So we have all this data here, ready for mining from corporate or foreign interests (ok, well the ones not already in bed with the USG) and all they have to do is attack the weakened infrastructure. If I was a such an outside entity, a few million spent in forcing the shutdown sounds like a well-spent investment so I can swoop in and pick up the pieces. What a clusterfuck.
