The All Seeing Eye

Sauron, where did I leave my phone?

So as today's annoyingly hypothetical question let me ask you this: If Google or Apple wanted to disclose our intelligence efforts in China, say, how much damage do you think they could do?

Is the next @Snowden truly someone who works in the intelligence community, or are they someone with access to enough data and computation that they can do massive damage without ever having "clearance"?

Look, all I'm saying is that there are a LOT of reasons for the US IC not to go to war with the only companies on Earth that have a working AI.
