Great. Would you like some info on the "silent partners", potentially NSA-linked, that didn't want their hbgary association known? Like Endgame?

Can't think of what it might refer to other than that, but keep in mind that Barr's actions/thinking do not always make sense; don't think of him as rational actor when trying to decipher such things.

Any idea what the USG is Barr makes reference to? I first thought US Gov't, but why would he make a distinction between that and DNI?

Do you suppose there might be a market for an offshore intel gathering organization that would sell results?

BTW,

The conversation was very interesting today. The admit they had no idea this was happening until it hit the streets. They have no idea how to manage things like this in the future. And the agree they are not capable of doing the right activities (like I did) to be better prepared in the future because of authority and policy restrictions.

So I gave them a model that might work. I will do the work based on my understanding of need on my dime... put together a report... and sell them the report.

They liked that. I am working up 5 slides to hopefully brief Glenn next Friday.

Hi Dawn,

I have been doing some research on the Anonymous group of wikileaks fame for an upcoming presentation. I have put together what I believe is a significant data set on this group, how it's organized, individuals. I shared some of this with Tom and he recommended that I should mention this to you to see if there is any interest in discussing my results, methodologies, and significance of social media for analysis and exposure.
