(Natural News) There is no question that it behooves the Big Tech industry to hire some of the world's best intelligence experts because their platforms are continually sought out by foreign adversaries to be used as propaganda outlets and to drive false narratives that are harmful to the targeted nation.

But when those same platforms willingly go along with domestic efforts to drive false narratives and keep Americans unbalanced, distrustful and angry at each other, that's a different story.

So to that latter point, it definitely matters that Big Tech platforms like Twitter appear to be going out of their way to hire former deep state officials from agencies like DHS, the FBI, the U.S. military intelligence community and the CIA.

According to an investigation by MintPress News, in recent months Twitter has become a hub for former spooks from the U.S. intelligence agencies and the military, especially from the FBI:

The FBI is generally known as a domestic security and intelligence force. However, it has recently expanded its remit into cyberspace. "The FBI's investigative authority is the broadest of all federal law enforcement agencies," the "About" section of its website informs readers. "The FBI has divided its investigations into a number of programs, such as domestic and international terrorism, foreign counterintelligence [and] cyber crime," it adds.
