I assume this is the genesis of a Five Eyes cloud platform.

Questions for me are which commercial partners are in the mix, and how will they ensure TS-level security?

I guess we'll never truly know, but it's hard not to worry about the implications of this.

But security costs money and we can blame breeches on those devilish h4ck3r5 so yeah nah
