- joshstrange 13y agoYes, because the government would NEVER plant agents in various online forums to further their own agenda..... /s While I would guess this is probably not the case here I would caution against making it seem so ludacris....
- mpyne 13y agoDid the government somehow manage to predict 746 days ago that they would need to have a PR flackey describing the workday of an NSA analyst to clean up for Snowden? I mean, that's some pretty special prognostication, right there.
- joshstrange 13y agoWell anyone worth their salt should have known something like Snowden would happen eventually. Even if they didn't it would be smart to start infiltrating communities that they thought they might want "cred" in later.
