I'd would like to point out that OpenBSD backdoor thing is entirely unproven
and by all accounts just nonsense.
(But, just to finish my comments in this thread...)
I don't know if other people, in here, realize how *serious* all of this
is...
(Forget the light critics, made by the controlled civil liberties
organizations, and pay real attention to what's going on around you.)
You have an
For those who have more technical knowledge (and thought the first article
lacked details), this guy read the snowden files and has a good idea of what
the NSA can and cannot do:

The *NSA can tap Android systems(!)* (and also other, non-Linux, mobile
devices).
There's an initial report here:

And, I'll probably post some more links about the Android part (that most
interests me) once I find some more information
Correction: Since this is not about decryption capabilities (but tapping
capabilities), I think it deserves a thread of its own. So, I'll just create
one, instead.
These articles sure seem to be lacking in any real meaty details. Seems like
a lot of marketing hyperbole to make people paranoid to be perfectly honest..
..But if I might speculate aloud a little then.
Getting around SSL is obviously easy, as with 99% of websites you need only
go knock on
World Wide Wiretap, is what I've heard that WWW stands for in
intelligence circles, from a journalist who has been denouncing this kind of
surveillance for (many) years.

Like exactly how it's done? And with who? Of course - These details are
guarded by still higher levels of classification.
What I dont like is how they spent $255 million of tax payer money to
basically snoop on the people that had no choice into paying for it since
that's how taxes work. That is a lot of money going into taking away not only
the freedom of Americans, but other countries. I also don't like how
Who's the conspiracy theorist now?
And, here goes a(nother) warning that I know will be (once more) ignored by
the less politically informed, aware and sophisticated...
Watch out for the *fake* alternatives, that the media

1984 Hosting is called that as a reference to Nineteen Eighty-Four,
obviously. It's obvious what the name means: that it's the hosting service
you use to stay away from such a government as in Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Anyway, what you linked to isn't even 1984 Hosting, it's Mailpile. I'm not
No, I mean any facts whatsoever actually. Like what they're even doing. From
a cursory reading those articles are just nothing but run for the hills
hysteria with a few buzz words mixed in.
So figured it might be worth writing a quick little summary of what kind of
stuff they SEEM to be
We don't live in Oceania. The closest thing to that in the world is North
Korea, which I'm certain none of us live in because the Internet is heavily
censored there (or more appropriately, they have their own Internet). There
is no reason to believe that we have fake movements and

It is free software. It's good, doesn't matters the company. *You* have the
freedom to change all if you want.

With GNU project is the same. Many companies help with the project and
I dont think anyone can break strong encryption. The NSA is just getting
the keys, monitoring the keystrokes etc, not defeating the encryption.
I think users can beat it, it is just harder and less convieniant.
As an analogy, you can beat any audio drm by just holding a tape recorder

I know about this. Like years ago someone said about backdoor from FBI in
OpenBSD.
We don't live in Oceania, *yet*... But, as I recently said elsewhere
(https://trisquel.info/en/forum/ubuntu-1310-second-step-spy-its-users#comment-41977),
that's the kind of regime that is planned for us.
The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled
society.
I know that there are problems, and I know that people want power. But any
assertion that someone already has enough power to do that kind of deception
is baseless.

Well, this proves that a purely technological solution to encryption/privacy
is not nearly enough. This is definitely a political fight.
This is huge. If the NSA can control HTTPS and other encryption protocols,
then they have effectively broken the internet.
It's over.
Here's another link about them getting around SSL, VPNs, and other secure
protocols through brute force.
