Regarding all these NSA stories:
Why cant people gather the premises and then form the conclusion? All of this ‘reporting’ is searching for premises to support an already formed conclusion.
Regarding Microsoft and the NGA:
I recently heard that Microsoft bought Vexcel, which would jive with the what the article suggests. Any word on all of this implies a move on behalf of them to start moving into the defnese industry?

Ah, NeuStar. That’s the lead I’ve been looking for, for the past week. You can be sure I’ll have further reporting on this in a couple of days.
