This shouldn’t be shocking at all. (I also wouldn’t be surprised to find out that Satoshi Nakamoto is an NSA front.) The US has been involved in ‘election meddling’ and regime change forever, and building tools to help activists destabilize governments is part of that. That they also happen to destabilize American institutions is an unintended side effect.

It looks like the kind of cloths snake-oil security companies would use to dress-up their terrorist-looking cyber-criminal in presentations to law enforcement or other government agencies.

I follow HN pretty regularly and I had no idea. I thought Tor was the best bet for privacy. How is this garbage?
The US government wants you to be able to oppose the governments of countries X, Y and Z. A long list. So it pays for Tor. Other branches of the same government want to spy on you, in much the same way as the governments of X, Y and Z.

Geez. Could have they have found any other t-shirt designs that don't immediately scream "this guy is a cybercriminal"? It looks like the kind of cloths snake-oil security companies would use to dress-up their terrorist-looking cyber-criminal in presentations to law enforcement or other government agencies.

don't be such a geezer :) the shirt is cool, the color scheme appeals to its demographic, and the imagery is symbolic of past revolutions and struggles for freedom from tyranny
Call me a geezer if you want, but I had forgotten all about the guy... until I saw this shirt. He would definitely have worn it, and I can't imagine myself ever wearing it.
