They Said It Was for National Security

Описание: What if the greatest threat wasn’t from overseas — but from a decision made behind closed doors?
“They Said It Was for National Security” is a slow-burning, immersive narrative inspired by realistic covert government operations that were justified as “necessary” — but came at a devastating cost. In this powerful long-form storytelling experience, we follow Daniel Mercer, a former intelligence officer who begins to uncover a disturbing truth: a classified program conducted on American soil may have exposed innocent families to dangerous experimental compounds.

And who decides what is “acceptable collateral damage”?
