A criminal government at work: The NSA paid to steal your private data
A criminal government at work: The NSA paid to steal your private data
It’s like building door locks that can all be opened with a special key. That’s what the NSA designed and it paid RSA to include that “backdoor” in its software and offer that version of the encryption scheme as the default on its Bsafe programs.
What’s disturbing is that millions of computers use Bsafe (and many more use some RSA-based encryption method). What is even more disturbing is that many of the programs that use “Bsafe” are for Androids and other cell phones: devices rapidly becoming the information device of choice for many people all over the world. But what’s most disturbing is that this piece of technological flim-flam may not be limited to Bsafe or even to RSA programs. Other companies that build widely-used encryption include Symantec, McAfee, and Microsoft and experts now suspect the NSA may have bribed them as well.
“You think they only bribed one company in the history of their operations?” asked Bruce Schneier, one of the world’s premier information security experts. “What’s at play here is that we don’t know who’s involved. You have no idea who else was bribed, so you don’t know who else you can trust.”

Just a Thought, say we had a Coup, like Republican taking over of the Government, you have all your information stolen, like what happened to Target over the holidays but on a grand scale. All your information is on some giant computer somewhere, in a blink of your eye all the money is gone, banks close because they have been wiped out, Now who do you call? The ATMs don’t work, you cant buy food or gas, everything shuts down.
You look out your door like a tornado is coming but all your neighbors are in the same boat looking out to see if this is some kind of cruel joke, but its not. You are now in survival mode as if martians have just landed and eaten reality, science fiction comes alive in a instant. Now who do you call, your TV and Radios are off the air, phones are disabled, total chaos ensues.
Then one day everything turns on, everything works, except your money is still gone, your property has changed hands, police and fire departments have long been taken over by exclusive secret police the rest have been fired, dismissed or shot in the last few weeks so only the insiders have control, a complete and utter coup. Monopolies have united in the last decade making the transition easier, we are screwed and tattooed, disobey and off to the one of many prisons already erected sitting silent until now. Just a Thought!
