Does anyone believe that the "Ocean Observatories Initiative" had _no_ role in tracking foreign submarines for the US Navy? (The science stuff is always the cover story—they need temperature, current, salinity data to process sonar data, any technothriller reader would have picked up on this) At some point it will turn out that some USN expert managed to get the right people's attention

@dmarti@federate.social Does anyone believe that the ban on US import of foreign-made network devices had nothing to do with backdoors? Yes, I do now work for an overseas maker of network devices, but still!
