America's darling Jeff Bezos exploited a flaw in his book suppliers policies to gain an unfair edge on competitors in the early days of Amazon. Best business man ever: give him the key to the city and a dick-shaped rocket ship.

He also got rich daddy and rich friend money to get money for his totally original and non-derivative idea of "selling things online". Maybe that's where this guy went wrong? No rich daddy?

US sells/provides/uses so many armaments around the world that it's laughable to think Russia doesn't already have their hands on at least a vast chunk of our "tech". Surely trying to reverse-engineer what they can, as I'm sure any country does to foreign equipment.

Usually it's the manufacture process of tech that is the "secret sauce".
