#3I wondered about that traffic, and getting confirmation from the source that the only way the NSA could have it would be by tapping into the internal network is as quite damning.
Google has the best OpSec team I've ever known, it is my hope that they close this 'loophole' as completely as possible.

#5It's ironic that when the Chinese attack against Google occurred, we thought the Chinese government was the most hostile state actor threat to worry about, but it turned out to be the US and UK government.

#6This has been asked before, but I'd love to hear from a dev (anonymously of course) who actually helped build this NSA madness. Is it like The Cube, where no one really knew what each piece was for? Is it that they are morally pro the NSA's attitude toward personal and corporate privacy, or do they just not care either way?

#9Appreciate Mike speaking up like this. We need more people within the industry to speak up. Not just hackers.
(People within these companies are also hackers, but they have more effect when they speak because they are part of a company)
