US Government Group Behavior in the Simulation
Suffered from initial poor relations with industry group--caused by a combination of institutional biases and interpersonal dynamics.
In general, the US group wanted to do more…not just respond to events. The NSA representative wanted to tap communications. When he attempted to gain architectural information from the school computing facility, this was found out by someone within the other groups and promptly broadcast on the Web forum.
Control eventually gained permission for students to monitor group Internet accounts. However, groups weren’t using their accounts to communicate sensitive information.
