Real World Costs Of OPM Hack Starting To Trickle Out

Well, at least it's not like it's important we have intelligence assets in China or anything.

The CIA pulled a number of officers from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing as a precautionary measure in the wake of the massive cybertheft of the personal data of federal employees, current and former U.S. officials said.
...
Because the OPM records contained the background checks of State Department employees, officials privately said the Chinese could have compared those records with the list of embassy personnel. Anybody not on that list could be a CIA officer.
The CIA's move was meant to safeguard officers whose agency affiliation might be discovered as a result of the hack, said officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive matter.

Of course China would never share that kind of information with others in hopes of hampering the agents ability to be stationed anywhere.

Strangely enough, this whole mess doesn't seem to be getting as much attention as Valerie Plame did. Funny how the media is so selective about when they gin up outrage.

52 "Strangely enough, this whole mess doesn't seem to be getting as much attention as Valerie Plame did."

Can't recall the Plame mess without sourly recalling Dubya Bush sitting around a conference table in the White House, and sternly vowing in the voice of Judge Roy Bean to get to the bottom of Plame's flimsy cover being blown.

Gunna fah-nd that there varmint 'n bring 'm to justice, yessirree Bob.

With Colon Bowel sitting there literally right next to Bush, _knowing_ as Bush spoke that the individual who was responsible was Bowel's own personal aide at State, Richard Armitage. And yet saying nothing at all, and leaving the baying hounds to pull down and tear apart the luckless Libby instead.

Bowels gonna bowel. The person really at fault here is Bush 43, for figuring that Bowel was fit for an important top level federal post. And, by extension, Bush 41, for having consistently pushed the career advancement of Bowel not only during his own administration, but during the Reagan years.

Other cultures do not have that same 'programming' ...

Fraud, Bribery, and coercion are very normal business practices in much of the rest of the world (especially what we used to call the third world)...

So, now we allow people from these societies... with that moral base, into our IT infrastructure through a combination of H1B workers, and outsourcing.

We give people who do NOT have the same moral code as we in the West, administrative access to our data... and then wonder why SOME of them sell it, or give access to it, to others.

The science adviser to the President of the United States is someone who once wrote serious academic papers about the need to deliberately introduce chemicals into the public water supplies of the United States, to sterilize the populace and prevent overpopulation.

Think about that for a minute.

What's also worth thinking about is that the left, who shriek that overpopulation is killing the Erf, and who pushed loopy schemes like the one above to deal with overpopulation, suddenly have nothing but praise for mass immigration -- which leads to overpopulation. It's almost as though Fen's Law is as timeless and universal as are gravitation and electromagnetism.
