A revisit to politics

[Siirenias]

You know, I was hoping that empire AIs would get smarter...

But this is just trouble.

Either there's a glitch in the system, or one of my computer enemies is running a smear campaign on me, committing to intelligence attacks against my allies in my name. Is there a way to defend against this? I've even gone so far as to fill in "Cooperative Intelligence" where I had no projects assigned ever to compensate. I don't think it's having an effect.
