My reaction: "Ohhhhh, duh!"

You don't normally expect this kind of nonsense from government, but the US military is heavily into media tie-ins, mainly film and video games. I'd bet 5 dollars you just nailed it.

Is that also why they put literal SKYNET [0] in charge of telling us who to drone?

Just can't get over that one, either somebody in the NSA has a really dark sense of humor or people working there must be living in some kind of pop-culture vacuum.
