Ok, it sounds like you're not working a job relevant to national security?

Google/etc doesn't care who you are as long as you can make them profits - bad person, good person, etc. I'm glad to see that at least the government takes seriously the matter of who influences the system with so much power.

You mean a system that has: - Executed US citizens, including children, without a trial - Operates and/or assists the operation of torture facilities in multiple countries and - Conducts mass surveillance without a warrant. Yes, it’s definitely a system that is picking effective people who will help further the goals of those in power without doubts.

Nope. Never wanted to work in such areas. Prefer normal life.

>"...who influences the system with so much power."

You mean someone who uses private email server, keeps classified docs in wrong places (how is it even possible), says that it is all Russia's fault that Trump wins etc. etc. Yeah I feel so much safer.
