Corporations’ Spying Power / Obama and the Banksters

Corporations are as much into the spying, intelligence-gathering and privacy-violating culture as the NSA and its global counterparts are, says Joel Kotkin, who has been tracking the footprints of power and influence globally for more than 30 years and has written prolifically about the political impact and influence of the tech industry in reshaping the world.
