If the NSA knew how useful the info was, they would build a thousand clones to run the program on, connect them to clocks running zero, on, two, three, etc. years fast, and after a year know everything they’re supposed to know after 1000 years, after two years everything they’re supposed to know after 2000 years, etc. If you’re a time traveler, you could likely get a secure enclave built a zillion years in the future and tested for a further zillion years. That likely would avoid the cloning, but still wouldn’t prevent the NSA from gambling that what you’ll tell them twenty years from now is more useful than what you’ll tell them tomorrow (hoping that they’ll be able to fill in intermediate steps if needed. For example, if I told somebody from the 1930s how to sequence DNA, they probably could infer what DNA looks like and that DNA is something worthy of attention. If you’re a time traveler, the simple solution is to just send them the info on the date you want them to know it, though.
