It does look like that because the result seems to end up being the same.
But the theory does not make enough sense in that such a government would want to disclose their mass surveillance program only when absolutely no resistance is possible anymore, which is currently not the case yet.
- mercora 10y agolike i have said i do not believe this is what happened. But like you said it is noteworthy that the result appears to be similar. However, i also think it can be beneficial to disclose such programs in order to make use of the results of such programs in courts easier for example. It might also be easier to finance such programs when they are publicly known.
