Hypothetically, If irrefutable evidence surfaced indicating NSA/CIA had a backdoor into windows and could see everything on your computer:
(A) Would this information even get out to the average user? Is our media so controlled that this information would never surface? Suppose a whistle blower had irrefutable documents that the NSA/CIA confirmed or refused to refute.
(B) Would the average user care or take action? Is the average user so NPC'd/beaten down that they wouldn't give a shit? What would they do? Microsoft has a monopoly.
Curious to hear your thoughts.
Microsoft accidentally leaked the "NSAKEY" for NT years ago. Did you ever wonder why they were on the chopping block for antitrust, and then it suddenly went away?
