"Citing U.S. national security interests, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe granted the Pentagon a temporary waiver to further assess a broader waiver request from DoD."
Wait, what? If the stated reason for the ban is "espionage threat", how is it possible to allow the said espionage in the Department of Defense, arguably one of the juciest targets?
It either means the real reason is different, and we are being misled, or the threat of espionage is low, and we are being misled. Or am I missing something?
