My strong suspicion is that Japanese journalists and source are NOT the best place to learn about Japanese SIGINT and COMINT capabilities. Not hard to see some reasons for this.
I will agree with you on this. I am not an expert. (I am not a traditional journalist either.) I was just stating my honest understanding and impression.
"Honest"? Bwa-ha-ha! This "journalist" (a colleague of the pathological liar Charlie Platt) probably writes pornographic for Jap X-rated rags.
Please notify me, and us, of the forums where these engagements are occurring. For starters, how about some e-mail addresses of cabinet ministers and other officials.
The main problem is that most of it is in Japanese.
Learn some English, asshole.
This discussion is hardly going down in flames. You're apparently too sensitive to engage in robust debate.
This is true. I am not going engage in what you probably call a robust debate. A lot of people read this list and any robust debate will probably lower my reputation capital in some important area for me no matter what the outcome. I am not currently willing to take this risk.
Ito-san's repuatation is that of a pedophile. Japs don't export crypto (that would upset the NSA) but they do export pictures of little Jap girls being sexually molested. Is Ito-san one of the major exporters of child pornography from Japan, or is he one of the male models in those pictures? Nuke the Yellow Peril (again)
