Big Tech acquires companies founded and run by literal foreign spies and recruits said agents into critical positions with their departments. Meanwhile their alumni buddies down the street over at proscribed companies like NSO and Candiru hack into the products and services of these very same companies and use it to target citizens (including journalists, activists, politicians, diplomats) of America and its allies? And no one thinks there is a conflict of interest or threat to national security here?
Yep, these guys have a very powerful network with access to a lot more CISO offices than you or I can get into. That network also includes a lot of the people who develop malware and exploits.
