The current climate is such that people are getting
used to the word "Spy". The reality is being a Spy is engaging
in Espionage. When one says "Spy" everythinks of James Bond.
But when asked what Espionage is they either think secret or
nothing at all. Well Espionage is Spying. It is typically
clandestine. This means it is being done with without
notice, in secret. So if you think about it, James Bond is not a spy. The
people he goes after know what he has done and try to kill him.
What James Bond does do is more closely tied to a Covert operation.
Covert implies no-one knows who is behind it. Of course with
James, everyone knows he is with MI6 (SIS),। सो मय्बे ठाट दोएस नोट अपपल्य एइठेर.
Espionage is clandestine and can be done covertly. Very dangerous
since, if caught, everyone denies you. But if espionge is carried
out correctly, no-one ever knows if something was compromised or
at least not until it is too late, and if done covertly, they never
know who did it or who was behind it.
Counter espionage is simply the act of trying to prevent others from
carrying out espionage. Trying to root out the spys. Sounds easy but
is politically and physically tricky. If someone is obtained at the
thought of being a spy, you'd better prove it, or suffer political
fallout.
So just remember, its not the people you know are known spys you have to
worry about, it's everyone else. If they are a spy, you'll never
know. When the NSA taps your phone, cell phone, and laptop video
camera, you won't know it. When someone befriends you and you have
no idea what information you've actually given them, beware।
