Snowden reveals US intelligence’s black budget: $52.6 billion on secret programs

“Despite the hefty cost of operating the secret operations amid sequestration, excerpts from the summary leaked by Snowden show that the US still has significant setbacks keeping it from achieving its intelligence goals.  For one, the disclosure in and of itself demonstrates the intelligence community’s inability to prevent sensitive information from being leaked.  For those nations of upmost interest, the intelligence community is investing heavily on ‘offensive cyber operations’ launched by the CIA and NSA to hack foreign competitors, steal data and sabotage servers, at a time when, domestically, so-called cybercriminals are prosecuted at an alarming rate for comparably less harsh crimes.”
