与此同时,里根的指令遇到了困难。它让国家安全局(National Security Agency)负责国家电脑服务商与网络的安全,其中包括政府网络、商用网络与个人网络。国家安全局1952年创立时,是为了拦截外国通讯;它特意被禁止侦查美国公民。得克萨斯州民主党众议员杰克·布鲁克斯(Jack Brooks)是一位坚决的公民自由拥护者,他不愿让一纸秘密的总统命令模糊了其中的区别。他提起一项法律,推翻这条指令,最终获得了通过。
The main author of Reagan’s NSDD-145 was Donald Latham, the Pentagon’s liaison to the National Security Agency — and a former N.S.A. analyst himself. General Vessey had assigned him to answer Reagan’s question on “WarGames” (Could something like this really happen?). Mr. Latham answered as he did (The situation is much worse than you think.) because he knew that the N.S.A. had long been hacking into the communications systems of the Soviet Union and China — and what we were doing to them, they could someday do to us.
里根的NSDD-145指令的起草者是国防部对国家安全局的联络员唐纳德·莱瑟姆(Donald Latham),他本人之前在国家安全局担任联络员。维西将军派遣他去回答里根关于《战争游戏》的问题(“这种事真的会发生吗?”)莱瑟姆照实回答了这个问题(“这个问题比你想的还要严重得多”),因为他知道,国家安全局一直都在侵入苏联和中国的通讯系统——我们对他们做的事情,他们有一天也可以这样对我们做。
