Maybe. Maybe not.
   But regardless of who is moonlighting for whom, even if it is entirely
   unpaid and inadvertent (which beggars some disbelief), this was a top
   picture shared on many social media outlets:

   Not shown by the mainstream media though.

   Who decides for you what to think? Whoever it is, doesn't seem very
   trustworthy right now.
   Here's a simple law that congress could add that would decuple
   security:
   "copyright is voided for software two years after the end of life, or
   if after one year a critical vulnerability is unpatched"
   Well, lawyers could go through it and convert it into legalcode for the
   judicial architecture to parse.
   Personally I am very much in favor of allowing free reverse engineering
   of DOS and early Windows products.
   Regardless, the most important use of non-government encryption is the
   protection of trade secrets (hence the design of portable offline
   cipher machines up to the late eighties). The rights of poor people
   never go into the calculus of the powerful or the free market.
   For some reason, this calculus currently seems to also exclude national
   advantage. Everyone is hacking each other, but no one seems to
   really... care?
   Conclusions are hard to come by in this world for some reason.
   What would it take to convince you that your world view was entirely
   wrong?
   What world view could possibly fit the current four-dimensional model
   of the world?
   How hard would it be to reorient the current network of nonprofits in
   favor of privacy to well... improve privacy? Design open source
   products that are as secure as an iPhone? How hard is it to see that
   there's something seriously wrong with the world?
