But I don't think every secret service have installed his own
backdoors in all popular software and protocols.
And the NSA can't share these backdoors/weakness with all his
"friends", because if you tell a secret to everyone, it stop being a
secret. The existence and nature of these backdoors will be revealed,
and the affected software will fix them.
So probably the NSA works like Wall-Mart Secrets. And they sell
secrets, 100.000$ for a list of human rights activist, 2 millions
for the emails of the leaders of the opposition.
