        Still working through the publication, but what @Wikileaks has here is genuinely a big deal. Looks authentic.

        What makes this look real? Program & office names, such as the JQJ (IOC) crypt series, are real. Only a cleared insider could know them.

        The CIA reports show the USG developing vulnerabilities in US products, then intentionally keeping the holes open. Reckless beyond words.

        Another distinction is CIA (external to US surveillance) and NSA (domestic surveillance). But the tech is ubiquitous. @Snowden

        whatever the NSA Finds "in the wild" it can use. Visa versa. "Leaked" hacking tools can fulfill that purpose.

        Tor is not secure, and security is not the goal of Tor.

        And, even if it *were* the goal, it still wouldn't matter. How do you get data into the "secure chat app"?
