How is this not, on any set of facts, the worst case scenario? Immense harm to both US intel interests and public security simultaneously.

Which brings us back to question why NSA didn't warn at least major providers, like MSFT, when SB threatened to leak these tools.

That's a fair question, though I'm not sure I'd automatically presume there hasn't been prior disclosure.

it's a good question but the answer nobody wants to acknowledge is that the NSA didn't know which vulns they needed to warn about

Has Microsoft confirmed no disclosure or is that just assumption b/c no patch? I'd believe no disclosure, just see it as unanswered for now.

I agree it's unanswered. I haven't called MSFT but others have gotten no details thus far.

I doubt it'll be long. Cisco got out fast after the first dump to say they didn't know.

Cisco presumably didn't have 96 days warning.
