What are you talking about? People who work at the NSA really believe in the work they're doing and aren't paid well at all. They could be paid 10x to make photos upload faster at Google or Facebook and they wanted.

Maybe a few would be able to use their skills to run shady business, but in large the organization itself would dissolve. When the people stop getting their pay checks, I don't think they'll keep coming in the office anymore. And I don't think 99.99% of the nsa as an org has the business chops to make it without straight up stealing money from the people. I'm not suggesting it's easy or even possible, I'm only saying that until it happens, I don't see any way of really "winning".
