You can't close pandora's box. Not only is dismantling the NSA almost hopelessly unfeasible, the technology has already been proven to exist. Much like you can't stop the invention of calculus by killing Newton, you won't kill the methodologies of cryptanalysis by destroying the NSA. That information is now within grasp of the UK, China, Russia and Security Firm X and they are more incentivised to discover them now that it has been proven possible. We should aim to plug the holes now. The race isn't over just because another runner got a little bit ahead.
