Many people died for the sake of the secret. Given the lengths the government has gone to monitor its citizens, I could believe the technology stack has already been compromised. | |

Your point is completely valid and simply stated, and yes, I agree that they very possibly could do exactly this sort of thing for the sake of play-acting a government blindness that doesn't really exist as such. Truly this site is crawling with anal-retentive man-children who downvote over any silly self indulgent bullshit they can think of. |
