TLDR
The Pentagon established the Technology Support Office in April to expand efforts against foreign technology programs considered threats to U.S. military superiority, POLITICO reports. Possible activities include cyberattacks, supply chain disruptions and disinformation, but POLITICO says the office lacks authority to conduct clandestine operations directly. The report identifies no completed TSO attack or confirmed funding figure. Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Jacob Bliss disputed the account and said the department would work with Congress on oversight.
