To help in their covert data gathering, a number of three letter agencies–CIA, FBI, NSA, and other–had developed a new mini-drone that looked like a damselfly with great success. They even ate lightning bugs for power rather than having to recharge batteries . . .
Clarence, hearing all the hoo hah about private drones and privacy issues, thought he saw a market. So he went on Amazon and bought a GoPro and then ran a Craig’s List ad to find customers. He soon found out that Homeland Security, the FAA, DEA, CIA, the FCC, FBI and NSA were so busy downloading his streaming images that there was no band width left for his paying customers. The Alphabet guys were all insisting they were not using Clarence’s images for spying on Americans . . .
The White House Press Office and the Secret Service were livid; they had no idea how someone had gotten a camera into the President’s suite in his Hawaiian hotel room that the wags called the Hawaiian White House. Some stinking paparazzi must have bribed a maid, and now, photos of the president getting out of the shower had gone viral on YouTube. Some wondered if it was revenge by Angela Merkel of Germany for the NSA tapping her phone . . .
When the world learned that Gloria’s boss, Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, had had her cell phone bugged by NSA, Gloria suspected that she had been bugged as well. She hoped the techno-geeks could discover and remove the bugs . . . . . David, Sf.G.
When the CIA and NSA team tried to recruit her, Josie was pleased that her abilities had been noticed and, goodness knows, she could use the the generous salary and the benefits. Carrying the miniature fiber-optic camera was no problem, her maneuverability was unrivaled, but she had concerns when they started talking about the mount points under her wings for the hellfire missiles . . . . .
