Looks to be 1:1 lifted from the Google style-guide

Not quite 1:1. Google's very first language rule, "Run pylint..." is missing. Interesting that a tool set for hacking does not focus on basic code review tools.


Yup. Although I'm not surprised. CIA are intelligence gatherers, we can't expect them to be completely original, or even a tiny bit original in anything.



It's embarrassing to see that the CIA's Self-Signed Cert trick advocates "http.sslVerify false".
