Spying is Just Not What It Used To Be

Blog | by Norman Kay | 02.22.2019

This was once the purview of a proud crop of domestic and international professionals trained in copious covert disciplines.
A secretive group with saucy pictures and tell-tale tales. From a sovereign standpoint everyone spied on everyone, and the enemy was looked upon as a respected tradesperson.
Nowadays much of the spy booty is collected with a great help from all of us who open the door daily to the World Wide Nyet.
Don’t we all long for the simpler days of Maxwell Smart, 007, and Tinker Tailors.
Mind-mining has replaced the intricate gadgetry, wiretaps, poison pens, and the like.
But wait. All is not agloom!
The Spyscape Museum has opened, and with it a moshopy of modern master sleuth-craft, plus those nostalgic things of survey.
