“The reality:  Amazon to buy Washington Post fresh after $800M deal to host CIA servers  — WikiLeaks (@wikileaks) August 5, 2013.  The CIA has reportedly signed a massive cloud computing deal with Amazon, worth up to $600 million over the next 10 years.  FCW reports that its sources have told it Amazon will build a private cloud infrastructure for the CIA, to help it ‘keep up with emerging technologies like big data in a cost-effective manner not possible under the CIA’s previous cloud efforts.’  [..] Perhaps the single biggest item on Amazon’s legislative agenda is a bill that would empower all states to collect sales tax from online retailers.”
