Aside from the whole "ethics of hiring mercenaries", that kit sounds like a bad-ass piece of tech.
The Air Force is really pushing "Cyberspace" ops, and I'm sure there will be even more melding between the cyber and intel guys before I get out. Comm is infiltrating more and more career fields. (No pun intended.)
Also, the article tries to tie Blackbird to a lot of unsavory business contacts, but I didn't see anything unsavory about Blackbird themselves.

I found this interesting:
That's almost assuredly government speak for hacking/backdooring/cyber attacks/etc etc.In addition, the military expects Blackbird to provide everything from “crisis action planning” to “non-attributable internet research.”
Sounds like a cool company to work for.
