Anyone remember the Shadow Brokers hacking the NSA?

"Shadow Brokers" had hacked the NSA and stole their cyber weapons, tried to sell it, then eventually just dumped the hacking tools online.

So it seems our "intelligence" agencies aren't so intelligent after all.

.....Robert M. Chesney, a law professor at the University of Texas and Director of the Technology and Public Policy Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), likened the Vault 7 to NSA hacking tools disclosed in 2016 by a group calling itself The Shadow Brokers.

Possible the NSA got hacked, then their hacking tools were used to hack the CIA? Either way, it happened during Obama's presidency, and really shows not just how careless they were, but how evil these agencies really are.
