Re: I'm prepared to believe ...
Anyway, UK and US spies are close enough to each other they may not be much more worried about what, say, Cisco does. Usually, you're much more worried about what your enemies do. than your allies.
I used to work for Thales. We were told that when hacking attempts appeared to come from the PRC they would just see they had been spotted and leave. When hacking attempts appeared to come from Fort Meade and we asked GCHQ to ask the NSA what was going on, they would reply "Oh dear. Our computers must have been hacked and they were using us as a front."
