Why?
- cookiecaper 10y agoNew NSA program rolling out? O_O
- sam_pointer 10y agoNo. That was the Syria/Iraq/Iran BGP outages from earlier today.
- kchoudhu 10y agoYou laugh, but I guarantee you that the NSA has systems reliability issues just like the rest of us.
- jrockway 10y agoThe last person that guaranteed me something about the NSA is now exiled in Russia ;)
- cookiecaper 10y agoThis comment turned out to be surprisingly controversial for a pretty obvious joke. I've observed it at +4, down to +1, back up to +3, and now it's at 0! Heh. Didn't mean to rustle jimmies of any NSA contractors that may read HN. I'm sure in real life your rollouts are much smoother than this. :P
- linkregister 10y agoI'm sure the NSA employees and contractors are just happy to see non-threatening post about the agency. The downvotes probably came from people tired of the joke. It is an oft-repeated joke.
- draw_down 10y agoWell, I agree it got too much attention, that's for sure.
