The crap some spew about NSA being able to decode any encryption is pure baloney.

The don't have to work very hard if they are the ones who wrote the encryption product you're using.

"The crap some spew about NSA being able to decode any encryption is pure baloney."

They can do so with remote control of systems using commercial, closed source operating systems--the most popular systems used in business and government offices.

"The don't have to work very hard if they are the ones who wrote the encryption product you're using."

That's why they keep saying that they have done just that--because they haven't (e.g., the official hoax about OpenBSD's ipsec years ago). Global corporates have allowed them to write back doors into the most popular, expensive, closed-source software though, or in some cases, done it themselves.
