A former Twitter employee was convicted on Tuesday by a jury in federal court of six charges related to accusations that he spied on the company’s users for Saudi Arabia.

While at Twitter, Ahmad Abouammo, 44, managed media partnerships in the Middle East and North Africa. He developed relationships with prominent individuals in the region, receiving hundreds of thousands of dollars and a luxury watch from a top adviser to Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman. In return, prosecutors said, he shared the personal user information of dissidents with Saudi officials.

The jury convicted Mr. Abouammo of two counts of wire fraud or conspiracy to commit wire fraud, two counts of money laundering, one count of falsifying records and one count of acting as an agent of a foreign government without properly disclosing that work. It found Mr. Abouammo not guilty on five counts of wire fraud or conspiracy to commit wire fraud.

That is really scary. They probably have insiders in their payroll in every major tech company.

Why wouldn't they?

If you had a budget of ~1T for several decades how would you (acting as MBS) spend it all?

I just assume that once you get into the FAANG caliber of compensation in the US tech industry (and possibly well before that), that suddenly the walls, and everything else starts listening and glowing.

I didn't downvote the op. I downvoted you.

Having someone to disagree with your stance doesn't mean there's a conspiracy.

It’s probably because of the second paragraph. The first is a sentiment many people can agree with. The second paragraph, asserting not only that the U.S. is crumbling but that somehow retired generals working in SA is proof is utterly ridiculous.
