I had a mate who worked for one of the world ' s premier , super secret national intelligence agencies . He was a graphic designer . Part of job was to create wallet filler . That is stuff like gym membership cards , loyalty cards , store cards etc etc so that if someone in the field was pulled by the authorities , they looked like real people . So he knew the asumed names of a ton of assets in the field . Info that would be incredibly valuable to foreign powers . His security clearance . basic . If you think the worlds intelligence agencies are super tight , super professional outfits , think again . They ' re a bunch of fucking idiots with way too much power , way too little accountability , and virtually no oversight . You know what , i ' m probably going to get suicdeed for posting this . If you don ' t hear from me in a while , it would be great if you could all kick up a fuss .
