Spy game continues to this day - book review

We have heard a lot about corporate espionage, military industry complex spies, and government snoopers from Asia, especially China, in newspapers, magazines and on television. Ten to twenty years ago, thousands of Russian and Japanese spies in the United States stole our technology and tried to figure out what the government did in the military. Today, we are espionage in all areas of the economy, and to some extent this is a tribute to the incredible innovation and strength of the United States.

If we don't have important information, technology and innovation, those spies from China, Russia, Japan and other places will not be in the first place. This proves that the United States of America is the greatest country in the history of mankind. However, when our secrets are stolen, it affects our economy, our business community and the future strength of our military. So this is unacceptable and we have to stop it.

If you want to learn more about this topic, I will have an interesting book that I hope you read, which is "anyway" for what happened in the 1980s. The name of this book is;

"Industrial espionage; intelligence technology and countermeasures" from

 Author: Norman R. Bottom Junior and Robert RJ Gallati, 1984 Nian

In this book, the author talks a lot about Japan, Russia and how and how they steal secrets from the United States. They explained that espionage is a complex activity and in many ways a form of laziness and greed. They talk about organized crime, nation states, business competitors, political terrorists and any combination of threats. They also talk about the basic elements of EEI or intelligence.


  • They are talking about "local agents" who are citizens of the enemy.

  • They discuss "internal agents" who are citizens of our high-powered enemies

  • They revealed the reality of "dual agent"

  • They talk about "consumption of agents" and can sacrifice to the enemy after giving false information.

  • They talk about life agents or professional spies

  • They talk about the challenges of crime in a free society

They explained that you should provide little or no help to the federal government's corporate espionage, even if you do contact them, how do you know that the people you contact in an organization will not disclose information. In fact, the government provides more information and secrets than almost any other source.

Russians often visit the Library of Congress and they also use the Freedom of Information Act. We are being used by our own transparencies. This is related to today's Chinese spies. The author of the book also raised a similar question; "How do you know that the chief privacy officer and the government agency are not jealous."

How do you know when someone appears in your business and claims to be a regulator that actually comes from the government? Even if they are, how do you know that they are espioning for others? The truth is that you don't have it, these are the techniques used. The author also describes a large amount of bad information, misleading and deceiving;


  1. Conclusion how part or all is wrong

  2. How the espionage threat is not recognized, the conclusion is too general for action

  3. How innocent people are labeled as suspects

"You can't put the word information on the garbage report, it's still junk" is my favorite sentence in the book. Another good book on this topic is what these authors actually recommend;

"Anti-spyware; everyone's business" from

 Author: Nancy L. Barnes

Most electronic anti-spyware devices are worthless, although some situations are worthwhile in some cases, or at least this is the idea of ​​1985, things are much better, but they still need improvement, which may be the formation of IARPA by intelligence agencies. the reason. Perhaps it is time for all American citizens to become familiar with corporate espionage. We trace our country's spies and package them. Please consider all of this.
