OT: NSA story keeps getting bigger...

[Nathan England]

During the antitrust trials it came out that the NSA has had a back door into Microsoft 
for years. We all know the NSA has a back door into Linux with the Selinux code...

Why not encryption stuff? I'm sure it's there and we just don't know it yet. Doesn't 
one of the guys who created RSA work for the NSA? Or am I thinking of someone else?

This country is looking less and less like a free country every day.  I read a few days 
ago that the FBI wants a back door to all encryption software.  Some may think they're 
doing nothing illegal, they have nothing to hide, but the way the IRS and EPA are 
harassing B.O.'s opponents proves that notion wrong.
