They don't just nmap the internet, they systematically compromise vulnerable targets as per the article and the slides. And unlike common criminals, there's no hope of them being stopped by any law enforcement agency.
If they're really going after every non 5-Eyes machine they can compromise, people living outside of the 5-Eyes need to protect themselves.

- a3n 12y agoAnd unlike common criminals, if they decide that you deserve to be extraordinarily rendered, there's no hope of stopping them. This is why you should resist government spying, because once you come to their attention, they could mistakenly or rightly decide that you need to be fucked with in some way, which could range from a brief arrest to murder. Merely coming to a government's attention puts you at risk, so we should minimize the chance that anyone can come to the government's attention.
