FISA raises risks far more serious than just monitoring!

60-70% of the National Security Agency AND the CIA's National Clandestine Services budgets are paid to private contractors.

Our secret intelligence budgets exceed $44 Billion a year.

If competitors want your trade secrets, your intellectual property or copies of your confidental communications, they can hire a well placed private contractor to get it.
