A government official getting away with something that would have had someone in private industry fired or even prosecuted!?!?!? Shocking! Simply shocking…..
I think you could devote your entire life to writing articles like this Carlton and even churn a few out a day dealing with surveillance and the security industry as a whole. I also don’t think anything would ever change unfortunately.
