Who wants to be a spy?

Sting, if they are as thorough on their vetting as I am led to believe they are, they WILL find this post and automatically cancel your application for blabbing about them and your choice to apply.
I've read through internship applications on a few "secret" service units and a fundamental part of the agreement is not to even acknowledge your application or intention to apply...It's great having a friend who vetts high ranking officials. You don't get names but the situational scenarios are absolute gold at dinner parties..



cheers,

Stan 101,regarding blabbing about them all their vancancies are listed openly on their website wich canbe found quite easily ive just googled DSD and there it is. As far as revealing that I was considering applying rest assured that the nicname sting will not appear on my application and I assume that most of my pers details are unknown to 98% or more of people on this forum.

If they dont accept me because of this post ill just have to stick with blowing things up for a living

People such as DSD and other spy agencies are experts at hacking into website servers, databases and communications networks. They have all the tricks at their disposal including backdoors built into popular software at the behest of governments. Not only can they read all your data but they can change it at will. And if you think that these powers are never abused by governments or by individuals acting alone then you probably also believe that there have never been any corrupt police.

And as for catching terrorists, well I think most intelligent terrorists would have stopped posting their blogs years ago.

Would they bother with recording your and everybody else's internet activities, Sting? Who knows, this would be as much a political decision as a defence decision. They probably do.

I agree that if they wanted to they are quite able to do so but my point was what have i said that would concern them other than to inform this thread of the existence of this organisation. Esp as it is a public website open to be googled.
