I'm surprised this isn't used in privacy arguments more often. Every time governments and politicians suggest tracking everything we do for our safety with the assurance our data is safe, surely it's prudent to point out that if (arguably) the most secret and advanced cyber command in the world can't keep their weapons and secrets safe, what chance do you have?

Sometimes throw in a new phrase ("24/7 guarded datacenter") to pretend they are not vulnerable to obvious risks.
