One hardly hears a peep about SAIC or Leidos in the news. SAIC split into two companies a few years back. The new one being Leidos. I'm focusing more on the activities of SAIC but Leidos is also oddly absent from the news. That includes both MSM and Alt-Media alike which is an omission of information I find interesting. But knowing most 'alt-media' people communicate through the internet, it's not difficult to figure out 'why' SAIC made moves early on to seize control of it, right?

It's amazing to me that with how intertwined they've become with every aspect of our surveillance state and war economy you find almost NO mention of them in either the mainstream of alt-media news.
Why? Is it because of SAIC's Internet Solutions purchase in 1995 that allowed them to seize the clearinghouse for web domains before it was opened up for competition? That would certainly give them a good amount of 'information control'. We look up everything on the internet. Everything on the internet gets touched by SAIC or has at some point during the earliest years of it's development. Keep in mind, in 1995 they were still calling it the "World Wide Web" and it was this cool new thing for most consumers. If SAIC had that much control early on and they only gave up partial control...well, you do math on why we never see or hear hardly a peep of negative publicity about one of the largest defense contractors in the world. Am I wrong to bring things like this up considering these companies have so much influence over our information? https://steemit.com/news/@rfchaosheart/saic-one-reason-why-you-may-never-heard-of-beyester-s-baby-boys
There is very little material available on the web that discusses SAIC's programs this openly. I encourage you to watch these PBS exposés. They document the authors of the Vanity Fair article published in 2007 entitled "Washington's $8 Billion Shadow". Hope you find it as enlightening as I did.
Here is the Vanity Fair Article:

One tell-tale sign of SAIC's informational influence is in the Snowden revelations and of similar whistleblowers. You'll often hear quite a few details about the programs themselves but seldom a mention of the role SAIC played in them.

It's interesting.
The Deep State is J P Morgan, Wells Fargo, HSBC, Deutsche Bank, Citi...
yep, Goldman Sachs too. All very much the Deep State as well. Finance, Defense and Telecom/Surveillance are all key parts but none of them could do it without the monetary rigging.
