#Informationindustrialcomplex is real and insidious. Fed agents pressure big tech to censor and provide personal data without due process. Big tech hires former @FBI and other fed agents to cast an illusion of integrity and nonpartisanship over their activities.
The former agents reach back to their contacts at the @FBI and other agencies to smooth and expedite investigative processes. Agencies benefit from easier access. Big tech avoids scrutiny because they are cooperating with Team America.
Elected officials like @tedlieu run cover by dismissing legitimate allegations of collusion between big tech and fed law enforcement and intelligence agencies. Big tech has political allies to avoid regulation of its questionable activities.
President Eisenhower warned of a military and scientific industrial complex. The new cabal marries surveillance capitalism, social media, fed domestic law enforcement and intelligence agencies, and politicians.
All are working in a symbiotic relationship to censor certain speech, infringe on privacy, and drag the country leftward against the wishes of its citizens.

1. @FBI Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) investigates employee misconduct. Think of them as the FBI's "Internal Affairs." OPR distributes a Quarterly All-Employee Email setting forth examples of its adjudicated cases during the previous 3 months.
2. OPR sends these Quarterly Emails to educate
employees about the Bureau's standards of conduct and to aid employees in steering clear
of ethical pitfalls and other violations.
3. OPR Quarterly Emails provide a description of an employee's actions/misconduct, the offense code alleged to have been violated, mitigating factors, and and penalty. All parties are kept anonymous.
