They most certainly have an agreement with Google here.

  Why?

    Because some people on HN voted so, I suppose? So much aggressive and frankly stupid presumption here. But, the vote wins! I just don't understand people here. Obviously it's perfectly natural for a trillion dollar company to allow a government agency to use their brand on their government domain - without any notice it all. Especially a government agency that is tasked with surveillance. Yeah, there's really no problem with that. It's that, or someone messed up setting up a captcha service for some public NSA service. What would be more likely?

      Yeah, I get strong chemtrail vibes from many of the comments here.

        Why did HN turn so stupid, all of a sudden? It used to be relatively smart.

          Eternal September. Astroturfing. Both are against the roolz to discuss. Take your pick.

          I don’t think it’s unreasonable to point out that lots of the speculation here about NSA hosting phishing pages or secret captcha-free google for analysts under nsa.gov falls firmly into the chemtrail category of crazy conspiracy theories. Just like with “chemtrails” there exists a very reasonable explanation for what happened here, but people are choosing to ignore that in order to push weird conspiracy theories.
