  often i will post a number of components of an idea rather than the idea itself, leaving it up to the reader to generate the idea[s] for themselves in socratic fashion usually ideas that i would not speak directly of example linus torvalds father saying no but nodding yes regarding NSA backdooring of SElinux excerpt from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=National_Security_Agency&action=edit&section=17t https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=National_Security... >Software backdoors Linus Torvalds, the founder of Linux kernel, joked during a LinuxCon keynote on September 18, 2013, that the NSA, who are the founder of SELinux, wanted a backdoor in the kernel.[81] However, later, Linus' father, a Member of the European Parliament (MEP), revealed that the NSA actually did this.[82] When my oldest son was asked the same question: "Has he been approached by the NSA about backdoors?" he said "No", but at the same time he nodded. Then he was sort of in the legal free. He had given the right answer, everybody understood that the NSA had approached him. — Nils Torvalds, LIBE Committee Inquiry on Electronic Mass Surveillance of EU Citizens – 11th Hearing, 11 November 2013[83] <
