Just a ridiculous question without an answer, but I was wondering why some
of these hackers and virus writers are not recruited by the cia. Maybe they
could find the way that bin anal por Ladin sends encrypted messages to his
sleeper slime or some other useful activities. If the motivation of hackers
and virus writers is excitement and a challenge, I think the cia could
provide just that. They are recruiting a lot of new people and getting 5x
the normal CV's coming into them, according to a NYTimes article, including
a lot of dotcom unemployed programmers. Their web site lists a lot of jobs
available, I noted. I was looking to see what jobs they had, but they do
not offer any jobs for traders and the pay is low for medical officers.
Think of the productive endeavors the hackers could find within the cia,
though.
