If you get hit with a pay wall to read this article, just Google "spy_kids_nsa_surveillance_next_generation" and you should get the article as the first result. Then you can read it from there.

View on HN

It's a development and expansion of my original argument, expressed here:

Thanks, Charles - for what is both an interesting take on the NSA's coming recruitment crisis and the best short range forecast of the evolution of Western culture I have yet to read.

As I noted on Reddit, at the very least you nailed your description of Gen Y. I was listening to featured-in-anime German-Japanese metal music just this morning ;-)!

We have HN whitelisted from the paywall, so if you click through from the link on this page you shouldn't see the paywall as long as you don't have any extensions that hide your referrer.

If that's not the case, would you mind dropping me an email with your browser/version? tim.showers@foreignpolicy.com

My mistake, the large subscription popup that appears on page load appeared to be a paywall to me. It does allow you to exit from it, though it had me a bit confused.

Ah, I can see how that would be confusing. That's a one time thing (cookie based, so if you clear or use private browsing you'll see it more often).

Thanks for the update, HN traffic is valuable to us and often generates interesting discussion, so I want to ensure that the paywal is disabled for it =).

I got the modal subscribe/login window also, though I don't immediately see anything to click to make it go away (without messing around in Firebug).

The current browser I'm using is Firefox 23.0.1 on OS X. My UA string is Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0

Thanks for speaking up. That's one of the great things about HN - primary sources standing by!

Yep. I got the same thing and just backed out.

I thought that was the article itself for a moment... it was full screen and article shaped!

Works for me despite a global RefControl block, which is either a bug or feature :)

(FF23+RefControl+NoScript+ABP)

That's NoScript helping you out in this case.
