I think that in light of the recent news of the NSA coercing various organizations to provide them with means to eavesdrop this message has merit and deserves response although I doubt the NSA really needs cooperation from these guys. Does anyone else care to comment ?
As far as I'm aware, nobody has contacted us, but if they did I may not know. They aren't really interested in end-user firewalls, they want infrastructure routers. We had a discussion on this already a month ago. http://lists.pfsense.org/pipermail/list/2013-September/004543.html Our code is all open source. In addition to our own code, code is also pulled from places such as FreeBSD, OpenSSL, and so on. So while our code is clean, it might be possible that if something we depend on has a flaw (perhaps by design in an encryption algorithm...) then it might be carried over. Nothing intentional on our part, and if such a thing is discovered and the offending code is fixed, we'd pull it in ASAP. So it would be more interesting to focus on FreeBSD, OpenSSL, OpenVPN, racoon, and other similar projects upon which we depend.
