Meh, they have run into difficulties right now, but they have an army of mathematicians, they will find a way.
remember how DES got cracked in the 90s? Nothing is safe forever. Techniques and computing power will improve.
hell, if I was the NSA, I’ll sneak a backdoor into the tor project through bribes and intimidation (being open source doesn’t prevent this all the time, just look at phpmyadmin). Or just replace the binary on the site with a compromised version, barely anyone compiles it themselves anyways

PS:

I’m trying to make Oct. 20 take your shirt off for the NSA day, please take your shirt off in front of the webcam, and do a quick strip tease for the hard working NSA agents.

Got something to hide Skybird?

Your, and mine governments have probably checked us looong ago, don't be so naive. Everyone is watched by everyone.

Stay off internet if you want to stay anynonoums. Enough with the bitching and crying already.

OMG you've uncovered Skybirds true identity!

Seems PEN is not amused, maybe this is the spark that was necessary

I'm not that ambitious.

I wonder how many NSA servers I've crashed because they can't handle the sheer mundanity of my day to day life?

I do wonder though Yubba has been silent for some time.

The NSA must be watching the right people then.
