No wonder traditional systems are under concerted damaging attack.... for they aint fit for Future Greater IntelAgent Games Purpose.
Some of the contracts my ex-employer MIC company got when I worked for them - carefully tailored so that while looking like a competitive RFQ, it could only be fulfilled by the outfit I worked for. The real collusion that's been going on as long as I've been alive. Very rewarding for contract officer and contractor alike.
As if they couldn't just post an abuse email and read it, or heck, like any trader simply read the usual sources. Takes one guy.
