UK Government to recruit from Xbox Live
November 20, 2009 by Ivan Cronyn
An arm of the UK government intelligence apparatus is to run a recruiting drive over Xbox Live, obviously hoping to cash in on the “mad skills” of the kids who’ve been killing me every night in Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer, every time I pop my head up.
The Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) is a British intelligence agency responsible for providing signals intelligence and information assurance to the UK government and armed forces. Their six-week marketing campaign on the Xbox LIVE dashboard will target 18-34 year olds and will include streamed video banners within the games.
I wonder if the GCHQ allows tea-bagging?

“I wonder if the GCHQ allows tea-bagging?”
If they don’t then I certainly won’t get passed the application phase.

I was playing 1vs100 last night and noticed some advertising from the GCHQ…
