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.
Probably not. Most people are stupid and would think it was for their safety.
