NSA has very low pay compared to any private company.
You'd be surprised at how low some private companies pay. I've gotten some shockingly low salary offers.

#142> ciadotgov4sjwlzihbbgxnqg3xiyrg7so2r2o3lt5wz5ypk4sxyjstad.onion How does one store links like this? You'd need a bookmark file, which would sort of give the game away, I'd have thought. How do you make sure you notice when you visit a URL with the same readable prefix?
Password safe seems like a good idea, especially since you'll quote likely want to store credentials for the site anyway.

Rubber hose.
Surely that's pretty much valid regardless of how you store them?
If it's not on you, they can't beat it out of you.
Of course, they might decide to beat you anyway. Which raises the question of whether it's strong crypto or rule of law that matters more. I'm not sure which way I come dwn on that myself, though could argue for bits of both.

When you work at the NSA, you are not allowed to say that you work for the NSA. Full stop. (Contractors are a different story for some complex reasons, but are still at risk) It's like this for many gov agencies working with intelligence because labeling yourself as an intelligence worker makes you a target for foreign intelligence agents. That may sound a little strange if you aren't part of that industry, but it is…
Where do you say you work? I’ve met a few linguist who said they work for the FBI or whoever but they were contractors on an as needed basis. What do the folks in Virginia say to their neighbors? “Oh I work for the DOD. So your a spy right haha?”
