> Quantum Insert requires the NSA and GCHQ to have fast-acting servers relatively near a target’s machine that are capable of intercepting browser traffic swiftly in order to deliver a malicious web page to the target’s machine before the legitimate web page can arrive. It looks like they reply to a request instead of a legitimate server (poisoning DNS, or routing tables, maybe by jus adding a server to an anycast service) to infect the target machines. Once the target machine is infected, ssl, passwords, etc... No longer matter.
