I find myself googling "etymology {word}" a lot recently; here inter is between like in intercontinental, and necine is death like in necrosis.

And inter is apparently the origin of intel, which is topical, and suggests Intelnecine, adj: destructive to all factions within Intel, or any company with a destructive amount of in-fighting.
