#1 The 2010 UN Security Council vote on Iran sanctions was close, and the NSA was able to help secure the vote by spying on the internal communications of some of the Security Council members.

#2 The United States and its allies have a home-field advantage when it comes to cyber operations. They are well-positioned along the key hubs and cables that connect the globe, and they use this to their advantage to spy on other countries.

#3 The most valuable collection points in the world are the ones where the best intelligence flows. The globe’s telegraph and phone networks required a lot of capital to construct, and their main hubs are in the richest and most economically interdependent states.

#4 The Five Eyes alliance is made up of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. They share a common language and democratic heritage, but they also share a favorable location along the coasts of the world’s major oceans.
