I haven’t stopped screaming yet.

I had a low opinion of German Intelligence Services even before this. But jeez! If I understand Intelligence Service best practise correctly, you monitor all copies of documents? Each copy is checked in and out? ie: it should not be possible, for this to have happened.

This is the conversation that came closest to making me lose my mind. Not because of the guest (he's great), but because I couldn't believe how Germany's foreign intelligence agency works. Or doesn't, rather. This scandal is a national embarrassment

I'm aware the thumbnail says some version of Bundesnachichtendeinst instead of "Bundesnachrichtendienst." I tried to get the AI to fix it for about 20 minutes and then I just gave up. It would be great if 100,000 of you could watch this video so I can hire a designer. Thanks.

Here is my personal BND intelligence blunder story lol. bsky.app/profile/rebe... But tbh the story of how BND got for example Ukraine so wrong and needed Polish intelligence to evacuate the head on the day of the invasion would be a fascinating follow on topic.
