You're using public sources of information to refute theories of where a highly-secret and officially-denied program might operate. That makes no sense.
Whatever office, department, or contractor does the NSA's package intercepts, all public sources will describe it as something innocent and unrelated.
- mikeash 13y agoThe guy I responded to is using that some information to try to support the theories. Either the info is good, or it's not. I have no particular objection to saying, "this stuff would be secret so of course there would be no information on it". Oddly, nobody has actually tried that. However, that still goes back to the point I raised: why Alexandria? It's not particularly convenient to the NSA. It's not convenient to shippers. It doesn't have anything special in the way of infrastructure. So it would be quite an odd choice. Possible, but it's not the smoking gun the article makes it out to be.
- busterarm 13y agoI specifically stated that I was just trying to point out that, despite your claim, there's something interesting in Alexandria. There's no point in debating speculations beyond that because we don't have any information for or against. It's just me stating "hey, it's possible" and refuting your suggestion that there isn't anything in Alexandria that could cause concern. I'm only answering a question you asked.
