For what specifically? Surveillance?

And to whom will this 10 billion dollars go? Palantir? FB? Goog? MIC?

I just read the article and the faq sheet for the bill....

Confirms that we are in a cyber war - after solarwinds, but the fact remains we are too little, too late. the US is pretty much owned already by foreign intel - including some that we supposedly see as "allies"

the only truth in this is "cyber security is the most lucrative position one in IT can be in at this point"


In terms of value for money, better any of them than the usual contracting suspects- Oracle, Lockheed, Northrop, etc.
