Sure thing! Unfortunately I'm afraid that you missed a lot of the content! You had asked for specific documents, not news reporting that pieced the context together (for example following the code names of the various programs together to understand how the system works as a pipeline). In doing so, I'm afraid you're deeply underestimating the capabilities of the NSA, which expert analysis of the documents in question along with the technologies, related programs and internal customer requests indicate something much more startling than Debian session issues.

But recommending this for sensitive use (journalists, dissidents, organizers, politicians, administrators) can lead to very serious outcomes. For these cases, it is important to have frank conversations about the limitations of freely available and widely distributed tools.
