Obama: I Have Confidence That The NSA Is Not Spying On Americans Or Snooping Around

What’s disgusting is that everyone believes that NSA is the only Agency low enough to do such a thing. I’ll bet my life that England, China, Russia and Germany Intels were all doing the same tricks.

It will cost RSA a lot more than 10mil to recover from this.

Wasn’t RSA hacked or compromised earlier this year?

I have an RSA token for my employer's website.

The idea that an intelligence agency has been subverting security applications should not be a shock to anyone. What bothers me is my perception that safeguards and processes to protect Joe Citizen within the Intelligence Community are being ignored or subverted.

It is an incredible dilemna. As a patriot, I want the NSA to be able to crack into any system. But I also worry about abuse. Who watches the Watchers?

RSA is now open to a huge class action lawsuit. They have promoted their product as the gold standard of security. They intentionally lied to the public about the security of their product. And worse, they were paid to insert a security flaw.

Hopefully this causes RSA to go bankrupt. They took 30 pieces of silver to sell their souls.

Has anyone come forward yet to show how much they paid u-soft to install a backdoor in every version of ‘doze? The one where some Unknown Coder listed the call as “NSAbackdoor” or something?

So now who does anybody trust when it comes to operating system security? How do we protect ourselves? Does the NSA have backdoors to every firewall, every malware protection software and every encryption scheme?

Quite a change from the day NSA told people not to use a certain key range with a popular encryption system, without saying why. 3 decades later we learned it was a very good suggestion.

IMHO, this alone vindicates Snowden.

Government is the greediest, most corrupt and murderous force on Earth.

And the US feral government is among the greediest and most corrupt. The murder will follow shortly.

$10 million seems like a small amount for a security company to sell out their customers and commit seppuku in the process. Screw them all.

I would suggest that anyone who bought the RSA security products immediately sue to obtain a couple of those millions of bribe money.
